Imagine someone giving a presentation to room full of co-workers and a web ad comes up saying something like "Resubscribe to Cannabis Weekly Delivery and get 10% off."

It's not hard to imagine a person's career being affected by something like that.

What if I was anti-abortion or pro-trump in a progressive tech company? Would my co-workers feel more comfortable destroying my life then?
