The issue is that while even if they build a perfect profile, they are still limited by which advertiser is paying more.

Google might know you don’t like cheeseburgers, but CheeseBurger Inc. just paid $200 million to have ads run, so you’re getting cheeseburger ads so that Google can’t report to the client that they’ve served ads.
