Why are people normalizing targeted ads, let alone being impartial to ads at all?

I'm seeing this the other way around. It's possible the normalization is incidental: the comic exists because it's a common interaction these days.

At the same time, the comic is from the New Yorker. Magazines have a different attitude about advertising in general, so (IMO) this is as anti-ad as a magazine comic can get away with.
