Comment on Grammarly Announces Layoffsparent

Comments

I emailed their customer support and asked them to stop targeting my email account in all their ads. They said they did, but I still got a ton of their ads afterwards. Anybody with ads experience would instantly know their ads targeting wasn't working great and they were wasting a sh*t ton of money.

Why didn't you just filter their emails?

It's not their emails. It's all the ads you see on YouTube, display ads on random websites through Google/FB ads network, ads within xyz apps, and etc.. They spent a lot of $$$ on those ad networks.

Those are usually targeted through personal email addresses and device IDs. Impossible to opt out on users' end.

What was their response?
