    🚨 Consumers are fed up with identity-based advertising. 🚨 For years, brands have relied on data-heavy targeting, tracking users across the web to serve personalized ads. But instead of engagement, it’s pushing people away. We surveyed 1,500 consumers across the US and Canada and here’s what they told us: 🔍 Transparency matters – Nearly 80% want a law requiring full transparency in ad targeting. 😨 Over-personalization backfires – 62% feel “unnerved” by ads that know too much. 🚫 Consumers are fighting back – 38% are using ad blockers to avoid invasive ads. The message is clear: advertisers need to rethink their approach. The future isn’t in tracking—it’s in transparency and respect. Get more insights in our latest blog here: https://lnkd.in/gfhKq7ge
