Dear YoWorld, Do you not have a Dev, QA, Stage, and Prod environment to test thoroughly before putting something new, such as the new ads feature, straight onto the Prod enviornment? You should not be using your customers to test your new releases, and especially, the new Ads feature. You can also create a Prod-like environment that is set up just like Prod to behave the same as Prod, which is typically the Stage enviornment. If you allow your employees to work from home, then they can test from their location to see if commercials are local to them or not.

The prior ads were working for my locality. The ad choices listed stores in my neighborhood. I guessed it might be based on either zip-code or lat & long coordinates.
