Why does a state have ad tracking data? Are they really that hard up for cash that they need to have ad campaigns for people selecting insurance?

I understood it to be the reverse - they advertise on LinkedIn, and the trackers determine whether the users convert once they click through. Not great, but at least not as ill intentioned

  • Not sure I understand this, but "I" (coveredca) pay linkedin to place my ads, for which "I" have to use their libraries? That then scrape "my" clients/customer data to linkedin? for them to make more money selling that data?

    Does this also mean that those pious popups about "Do not sell my information" are essentially vacuous?
