Unless you are willing to not use computers, phones, and the Internet having your data scooped up for targeted advertising is inevitable. Even if you abandon computers, phones, and the Internet your bank, healthcare provider, car company, insurance company, state agencies, etc. all sell your data to brokers. Your best bet is to be a square peg in a square hole and just look like everyone else's data. Your data is just one person's among billions being tracked. A needle in a haystack. If you have serious concerns about being tracked for some nefarious reason you can run, but you can't hide. They found and killed Bin Laden, who was off the grid and not using any technology in order not to be tracked. If you are seriously worried that advertising tracking is going to influence your decisions look inward at your own decision making processes. You don't have to use social media. You don't have to purchase the schlock being advertised. It is up to you.
