when i used apps with targeted ads, amongst generic type of stuff i also used to get two polar opposites of ads:

  1. ah, we see you're in poland and use english a lot, want to learn english?

  2. ah, we see you're in poland and use english a lot, we can help you get your immigration papers for legal employment

both at the same time btw. apparently being a polish national who speaks english fluently marked me as some sort of ad-anomaly

the ads also believed that i was a senior? at some point i even got a spam call inviting me to join a study on back pain T–T like bro you're at least 10 years early, relax

    Was ad number 2 about how to get immigration papers as an English-speaking person in Poland? I imagine Poland doesn't have a lot of immigration from people in English-speaking countries. Especially not from people who haven't figure out all the legalities necessary to gain employment in Poland.
