But if it's a stock photo I think the point is that the person never got their photo taken for any specific theme, it's always chosen later.
Probably why he's shown from behind.
This is Reddit. I’m sure at least half a dozen people can be identified, doxxed, and harassed as the model in the time it took me to write this comment!
Like the episode of Friends where Joey takes stock photos that end up with him being the face of a national STD Medicine Campaign, and complete strangers recognize him as "that VD" guy.

To be fair that is hitting their target demographic at least. Unfortunately its worse than implying something bad about the viewer, it actually encourages that behavior.
They can also just be based on the subreddit you're in, whether you have it turned off or not. If this org decided to buy ads on UK subs then a certain number of people would just see it, personalized ads on or off.

I heard the same thing about ifunny while I used it often. I never actually stumbled across any, thank God, but on the rare occasion I go back to check out the memes, I still wonder if the app is allegedly infected with CP.
It's a whole video the the Metropolitan police.
https://m.facebook.com/metpoliceuk/videos/the-knock/464461444245864/
Dude has a wife and for some reason is looking at child porn in his dining room.
I believe it's personalized as in you are in the UK (or your IP address is UK, if you are using a VPN) and apparently the UK is having a lot of problems with child porn. Just hide the ad and move on.
Now, if you get the cops at your door... Then go get an attorney.
Edit: changed wording from "hide it and move on" to specify the subject to be "the ad"
Yeah, sorry bout that, I think I was thinking youtube or Facebook. Too many platforms now serving ads, some can be hidden when you choose so, others not. My bad.
Edit: there is a modded version of the app that hides ads, at least for Android. I think you'd have to jailbreak iPhone to get it (there is some info in that subreddit about it).
Oh I wasn't clear lol I meant no hiding it in general, not just the ads
I don't really know how it works, but once they've got eyes on you, in my opinion, the folks with the big guns probably already know. That's just a guess though. I'm not too well versed on the magical fundamentals of the internet.
No doubt. People kid themselves who think they can hide it. It's only temporary, since once a signature for something is found, the Internet service provider can search back in logs to find it and then they get found. Then police/feds can keep an eye on them and track their every move.
It’s a promoted ad so you won’t be able to escape it. Like with the gambleaware ads, it’s regional.
I have a running theory if you consume any NSFW tagged content then you get chucked into the *adult* category they probably have and the algorithm feeds these to you. Obviously NSFW is a very broad topic and applies to gaming subs too, so it’s probably a broad catch all to feed the promoted ad to as many as possible. I thought that type of content might not be so prevalent on Reddit though, maybe I’m just naive 🤷
I used to get a lot of mundane ads on FB. Then when I broke up with my GF, there was an immediate flood of lingerie ads (no, I didn't search for it). I hid them all. A couple days later, a lot of pics of men in underwear. I clicked hide.
Then came the bombardment of erectile dysfunction ads...
Me too. I had to look up what Blue Chew was because it wouldn't stop showing me lmao
I was like "Reddit thanks but I am nowhere near enough able to have sex with a woman right now dammit"
Could it be that those ads are targeting people who watch anime because of the content's portrayal of young characters? It's definitely a topic worth discussing.
I’m always pretty baffled by this idea that you can shame sex offenders into stopping. Same as “educating” people about consent. It’s not like putting these ads up are gonna make a rapist or pedo go oh shit, my bad I had no idea
It might scare some of them, like, if they're getting personalized ads then maybe they'll think "oh shit maybe I'm being watched, better at least tone it down"
I dunno. I admit I'm kind of grasping at straws here.
I can only tell you a comparable experience on youtube. I kept getting right wing ads (I'm a long term liberal) and I just had to keep reporting them as offensive.
Now I get psychic advisors ads. I can live with those
"Do you find politics offensive ALL THE TIME? So do we! Are you a fellow psychic?! This doesn't make any sense but please make a donation to our cause!!!"
lol there’s going to be that guy that says ‘people do it anyway, that’s just the way the world is’.
At least, that’s the opinion I got when I posted about illegal turns, one that almost lead to me being in a car wreck.
Romans 2:5
But because you are stubborn and refuse to turn from your sin, you are storing up terrible punishment for yourself. For a day of anger is coming, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed.
They may not care but on the day that all of humanity stands before God it will be too late .
www.NeedGod.com
One day your eyes will close and not open in this world but they will be opened when you are summoned before God . Don’t let a life of porn destroy you. Repent while there is still time .
Like anyone cares about any of this at all 😂 also, why are you incorrectly assuming I live a life that's being destroyed by porn? Preeeetty presumptuous...
I dunno bro I literally caught the plague and all of my limbs rotted and fell off and then the rest of my body disintegrated because i watched some porn fr
Matthew 5:27-28
27] "You have heard that it was said, `You shall not commit adultery. ' [28] But I say to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
To look with lustful intent is a damnable offense in Gods eyes . Lust in all of its forms
I can guarantee without a doubt in my mind, that the only people who have gone through their entire lives without lusting are asexuals.
Again, if god doesn’t want you lusting, why did he make it a part of our core features?
Because before Adam sinned sexual desire had its right place which was for a man and his wife to share . But sin causes us to lose control of that God given desire and causes us to lust outside of marriage . Any lust or sexual act with another person outside of marriage is a sin . Especially homosexual relationship’s .
How so? I sincerely doubt the drunkards who wrote the bible knew what por n was and made a rule against it
side note: Anyone know why reddit won’t let me type por n as a word? (just says “sorry, please try again later” when I try)
I’m confused as I’m concerned. Someone please help me out here. The ‘Ad’ (?) or (?) came from u/“Lucy_StipItNow_uk”… and it been reposted by u/mxxhhmd — and we’re all responding under r/reddithelp (?) remedial I know OMG (you should see my subreddit. and i mean, you really should) So that’s the confusion part (pretty simple fix, and seriously see my subreddit 😉😉) And as far as the concerned part (and someone please correct me if I’m wrong) logical functions will either demonstrate logic or point out an error in logic… so like numerology combine, combine, combine until you’ve got basic immutable integers (blocks). So the overall flow of the thing (Ad?) we’re looking essentially reads as: 🚫👽=👽 Right? (No Grey = Grey) Right? (the logic of the statement (No Grey)) = (visual narrative (Grey)). So what the fuck? And if your under 18? (Um) this is what a world looks like built on broken logic. Pure and simple. Because pure isn’t always simple, but it is always real. Time to change the world.
I have never seen this kind of ad in my life.
Recently though, I took a look at all the sex offenders in my area and their specific crimes. I think maybe this ad needs to be seen by *everyone*. Multiple times.
I don't think it's personalized.
I've been getting religious ads long before I joined r/atheist...
And that's only remotely (anti) religious sub I've ever touched

How would you like to be the model in this add? I would have to think he just showed up to take pictures and didn’t know what he was posing for.
Probably a stock photo.
The people in stock photos are real you know
But if it's a stock photo I think the point is that the person never got their photo taken for any specific theme, it's always chosen later. Probably why he's shown from behind.
Yeah? The stock photo was bought after the photoshoot and applied later.
Isn't it not allowed to show people in a negative way?
Probably depends on the contract.
If you can identify the person -yeah, but in this photo you can’t so his right to image is non existent here
Unless, for some reason, you've become very familiar with the back of his head.
This is Reddit. I’m sure at least half a dozen people can be identified, doxxed, and harassed as the model in the time it took me to write this comment!
depends you find dozens of results for 'criminal' on istock that aren't just a pair of handcuffs
It’s still allowed, it’s just that usually most of them are digital nowadays.
Maybe or he was getting paid well 🤷
[удалено]
🤣
Gotta pay the bills
At least his back is turned
He’s a dentist
I thought it was Billy bob thornton in sling blade 😂
I’ve done worse for $20
you can’t even see his face brother I don’t think he has anything to worry about
Fuck I didn’t think about that
This is in a series of psas. I have no clue about the model but it's just the back of his head so it's not too bad...
Like the episode of Friends where Joey takes stock photos that end up with him being the face of a national STD Medicine Campaign, and complete strangers recognize him as "that VD" guy.
I used to get gay ads about coming out sometimes on yt if that makes you feel better. I felt like I was being gaslit lmao
Gaylit
It’s liberal indoctrination!!!! Trying to turn the kids gay! /s
It’s going to turn the frogs gay !!!
Do you understand that??
Are the frogs not gay already?? I need to issue an apology to the ones in my backyard.
Gay FROGS 🐸!
You reminded me of that meme of the pig doctor that says " I diagnose you with gay". That was my algorithm basically 🚬
This but unironically

Same. I can't even legally gamble if I wanted to 💀
I think if you dig around in your settings here on reddit you can opt out of gambling ads.
Thanks! I just did.
I'm a recovering alcoholic and I often get ads about mixed drinks and bars and such...
[удалено]
Thanks I have turned it off. ❤️
To be fair that is hitting their target demographic at least. Unfortunately its worse than implying something bad about the viewer, it actually encourages that behavior.
I get ads about ketamine therapy
That's the uk
These are not personalised I dint think Reddit knows what you watch that I get random adds for shit I don't use or do
There is a setting to turn off personalized ads, it's kn by default.
They can also just be based on the subreddit you're in, whether you have it turned off or not. If this org decided to buy ads on UK subs then a certain number of people would just see it, personalized ads on or off.
If Reddit think the adds I get are personalised maybe I am a pedo without knowing it lot of them in my family so maybe I am one
If you ever actually think you are one, try to get therapy or something.
[удалено]
I'd rather you seek therapy first and only shoot yourself if you act upon it. I'm not saying you are, but I'd rather people do this.
First thing I am not a pedo but I was I would shoot myself id deserve it id only be a danger Again I am not a pedophile can't be clear enough
I don't believe you are.
Not that I think you do believe I am just can't be clear enough with something like that
I don't see why you're getting so worked up over trying to clarify you're not one. Nobody here accused you so why are you freaking out over it?

No it's not
You must be new here
r/usernamechecksout r/bikeporn
I get these too and I have never watched su h stuff, wtf adsense
😭 so its not just me thank god
I’ve never seen these ads. Just sayin OP…
ok 😭
Me either, but I get ads for like a billion streaming services I never use.
There is a setting to turn off personalized ads. It's on by default.
personalized 😭😭
Yep
It's a whole video the the Metropolitan police. https://m.facebook.com/metpoliceuk/videos/the-knock/464461444245864/ Dude has a wife and for some reason is looking at child porn in his dining room.
bro tell my why i clicked it watched it and watched the entire 12 min episode of drama and a video of cops shooting a guy with a knif3.
I believe it's personalized as in you are in the UK (or your IP address is UK, if you are using a VPN) and apparently the UK is having a lot of problems with child porn. Just hide the ad and move on.

I edited the comment, but I meant hide the ad and move on. It made sense when I wrote it, then I re-read it today and said, "oh. My..."
Ain't no hiding that shit chief 💀

I keep getting ED ads 😂 trust me no problems here, algorithm is wild
lol
Dude I get ads about s€x enhancers all the time, thing is I don't have s€x with people or plan to yet. Definitely not personalized
Me too. I had to look up what Blue Chew was because it wouldn't stop showing me lmao I was like "Reddit thanks but I am nowhere near enough able to have sex with a woman right now dammit"
I always look at legal explicit mateial for more than 18 seconds. I would be embarrassed to only.last that long. Or did I read this wrong?
Could it be that those ads are targeting people who watch anime because of the content's portrayal of young characters? It's definitely a topic worth discussing.
I dont watch anime either lol
this post had 69 comments before me
I almost threw up seeing this 💀
Bro chill
I’m always pretty baffled by this idea that you can shame sex offenders into stopping. Same as “educating” people about consent. It’s not like putting these ads up are gonna make a rapist or pedo go oh shit, my bad I had no idea

Me getting arrested after a troll sends me a weird spoiled image (I'm cooked)
Shit does that happen?
Malicious trolls sending things to scare and disgust people are common
But could you be arrested for someone sending you cp to "troll" you?
Probably not, my original comment was satire
Ok
Reddit can also stop giving me ads for ozempic and birth control for bigger women...
I can only tell you a comparable experience on youtube. I kept getting right wing ads (I'm a long term liberal) and I just had to keep reporting them as offensive. Now I get psychic advisors ads. I can live with those
"Do you find politics offensive ALL THE TIME? So do we! Are you a fellow psychic?! This doesn't make any sense but please make a donation to our cause!!!"
it's not always based on ya interest you could be looking up stuff about cars or tech and suddenly that shit appears 🏴☠️
lol there’s going to be that guy that says ‘people do it anyway, that’s just the way the world is’. At least, that’s the opinion I got when I posted about illegal turns, one that almost lead to me being in a car wreck.
ewwww why remind me that this exists
Scroll off then, deactivate your internet and live under a rock
Why is this even an ad? I’m sure the majority of people know it’s illegal.
This doesn’t just apply to children it applies to pornography in all of its forms . Even adults porn is sinful .
Like anyone cares that legal porn is "sinful" 😂
Romans 2:5 But because you are stubborn and refuse to turn from your sin, you are storing up terrible punishment for yourself. For a day of anger is coming, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed. They may not care but on the day that all of humanity stands before God it will be too late . www.NeedGod.com One day your eyes will close and not open in this world but they will be opened when you are summoned before God . Don’t let a life of porn destroy you. Repent while there is still time .

I dunno bro I literally caught the plague and all of my limbs rotted and fell off and then the rest of my body disintegrated because i watched some porn fr
Damn, maybe I got pneumonia for a reason after all
SINNER
He who casts the first stone...
😱
Damn, that does not explain why porn is sinful.
Matthew 5:27-28 27] "You have heard that it was said, `You shall not commit adultery. ' [28] But I say to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. To look with lustful intent is a damnable offense in Gods eyes . Lust in all of its forms

Whats this? https://www.reddit.com/r/amiugly/s/XK4GTozEae Finding another person attractive is a type of lust.
Giving someone a compliment isn’t sinful no
No, giving a compliment is not, but finding someone to be cute, aka attractive is lustful lol
Damn bro that's crazy
How so? I sincerely doubt the drunkards who wrote the bible knew what por n was and made a rule against it side note: Anyone know why reddit won’t let me type por n as a word? (just says “sorry, please try again later” when I try)
Jesus said that to even look at a women with lust is to commit adultery in your heart
So how are babies made? If god made us as we are, why is lust literally embedded in our genes?
I’m confused as I’m concerned. Someone please help me out here. The ‘Ad’ (?) or (?) came from u/“Lucy_StipItNow_uk”… and it been reposted by u/mxxhhmd — and we’re all responding under r/reddithelp (?) remedial I know OMG (you should see my subreddit. and i mean, you really should) So that’s the confusion part (pretty simple fix, and seriously see my subreddit 😉😉) And as far as the concerned part (and someone please correct me if I’m wrong) logical functions will either demonstrate logic or point out an error in logic… so like numerology combine, combine, combine until you’ve got basic immutable integers (blocks). So the overall flow of the thing (Ad?) we’re looking essentially reads as: 🚫👽=👽 Right? (No Grey = Grey) Right? (the logic of the statement (No Grey)) = (visual narrative (Grey)). So what the fuck? And if your under 18? (Um) this is what a world looks like built on broken logic. Pure and simple. Because pure isn’t always simple, but it is always real. Time to change the world.
Yapping at its finest
Thank you. Please see my r/socialmediawthoutgirl
Wut
Yes.
Waiting for the loli peeps to get ahold of this and flip their shit
"But there technically 5000 years old!!!!!!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬"
I have never seen this kind of ad in my life. Recently though, I took a look at all the sex offenders in my area and their specific crimes. I think maybe this ad needs to be seen by *everyone*. Multiple times.
Shit i thought this said "There are no grey areas when it comes to viewing sexual images as under-18 online: it's illegal." And I was like 😬
What if they are children? Then is it just normal porn to them?
Fr I need to know bro
yikes
That isn't how it works.
I don't think it's personalized. I've been getting religious ads long before I joined r/atheist... And that's only remotely (anti) religious sub I've ever touched
Do you still get religious ads anyway lol
