I've a personal account which is on a browser profile with ad blocking enabled and tracking disabled but on a different business profile I am keeping an eye on ads. I occasionally click them deliberately.

#12All the time. Demanding job + non-computer related hobbies limit my time to find new things I like.
I patronize websites that are for my demographic. I follow people that advertise things I like. They do the initial sourcing, then I do the research into whether or not I like that product.

#13Very occasionally (once a month?) Facebook will show me an ad that actually looks interesting enough to merit following it. Apart from that, I have an adblocker to keep the obnoxious stuff off my screen.
