I (straight man) keep seeing ads for feminine hygiene products, dildos, and sexy womens underwear. Also, ads for managing enterprise IT systems. I have no use for any of that stuff.

Maybe the targeting just isn't as good as the people selling their ad tech make it seem.

And that answers the question why 50% of Twitter staff were let go.

I don't use Twitter, I was talking about random web ads that I believe are served by Google (or companies that Google bought). Maybe they should fire half their staff too.
