The ads are a window into a blatantly illegal underground economy that Meta is not only failing to moderate, but is actively profiting from and injecting into users’ feeds.
I went on Edge, logged into Facebook, then proceeded to google various horse related things and visit the resulting websits. Now my ads are all about horses. I don’t own a horse, never been especially into them. But they’re nice and inoffensive in my feed.

Have you tried ublock origin?
Using umatrix. Difficulty is these are the ads presented as part of the feed so they’re difficult to block. Like the promoted posts on reddit.
