Facebook must monetize something in order to operate as a viable, profitable company. Whether it be data mining, face recognition data, location data or whatever, this information is collected and sold. I'm sure this forum data mines, just to pay the bills of operating a website. There is an ad right now for Met Life for auto insurance. Is it because I mentioned I own 3 vehicles on this site? Or do they assume I own a car, and hope I will change insurance on my home and 3 rental buildings, my umbrellas or consider an annuity(gasp!)? For the most part, I'd say there are a lot of folks with a lot of discretionary income. Why wouldn't we not be targets?
