No, that makes no sense. Sure, my data is valuable for advertisers, but:

The washing machine advertiser doesn't want to to spend money to show me an ad for something I'm not going to buy, and even Amazon doesn't benefit because they get something out of each purchase, so they should want to show me stuff I want to buy too.

There's just nobody that benefits from bad ad selection.
