For people who use Facebook (and Firefox or Chrome)

You can help ProPublica by installing their Political Ad Collector:

[T]he Political Ad Collector is a project to gather targeted political advertising on Facebook through a browser extension installed by thousands of users across the country. Those users, whose data is gathered completely anonymously, help us build a database of micro-targeted political ads that help us hold Facebook and campaigns accountable.

Now Mozilla are offering a Firefox Election Bundle, which includes the Ad Collector and the Firefox Facebook Container, which helps control Facebook's ability to track your non-Facebook browsing.

I don't use Facebook but hope folks use this extension -- of course, it's a self-selecting group; the really virulent micro-targeted hatred goes to people who would never ever help ProPublica, or the public indeed.
