Facebook will let you control which ads you see

The social network will explain why you're seeing a certain ad and allow you to remove the topic from your interests.

Facebook users who don't understand why they're seeing a certain ad on the site may soon be able to solve the mystery.


Starting in the US, the popular social network will unveil a new ad preferences feature that can shed more light on the ads you see, the company revealed on Thursday. Specifically, you'll be able to click on a link next to an ad called 'Why am I seeing this?' In response, Facebook will clue you in on why it chose to show you that specific ad.


If you then decide you don't want to see that particular type of ad in the future, you can tell Facebook to stop showing it via your ad preferences. For example, you may keep seeing ads about cars because that topic is listed as one of your ad interests. But if you're not in the market for a new car, you can simply remove that topic as one of your interests.


The new ad controls and preferences will roll out in the US over the next few weeks, according to Facebook. A global launch is in the works for the coming months.
