That was one of their initial objectives and the way they built their empire, however, it is evolving to much much more. Information is power. I will not go further to not upset the forum rules.

Targeted ads aren't exactly new, they're just more in your face since Big Tech. Google believes I'm way older than I am. Why? Well, Facebook would not let me use 01/01/1901 as my birthdate, so I simply used 02/02/1902 instead.

Or maybe it February 29th? It's kinda hard to keep track.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
