I think we agree. What I mean is on average it works for Google, not that it works for us. They still makes boatloads of cash.

For what I know the targeting is equally bad for you and me and everyone and they are just convincing advertisers that is worth paying for despite this.

Right, that's a good point, that it's working on their side with convincing the advertisers. Thanks for clarifying so I could understand!
