Campaigns like this, while frustrating for existing users, aren't there to target us, they're to target someone who filled out the sales form halfway and got distracted.

If I was ever going to buy from New Relic, I wouldn't now - I've seen their retarget ads at least a thousand times. If I didn't care about click fraud, I would have made a point to make sure I cost them a few dollars.
