Interesting. Could one use this to harass an ex? Because unless these sorts of ads are flaggable, I bet that will happen, whether unintentionally ("Dear Angelina, I miss you and I know you have seen this 53 times") or intentionally ("YOU HORRIBLE DEMON BIRCH %$@#%$!!!").



My thought process went down a related path but found a completely different destination.

"Your ex is much happier now and hopes that you're happy too but if you're not...Sorry about your luck."


There are hundreds of examples where privacy could be violated and misused. This is why (or at least the negative PR is why) Facebook has attempted to remove the ability. Also are FB ads ever not flaggable/reportable?
