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?

It could be insiders getting kickbacks.
