Why can targeted advertising be smart enough to show me ads at home for something I searched on my PC at work, but not smart enough to not show me the same ad 10x in a row or for services for which I’ve already subscribed?

Here’s how advertisement works for me:

I research and purchase thing independently

ads start appearing for thing I already purchased

My eyes glaze over and I start mentally checking out during all other advertisements because i assume its not relevant to me.

Advertising doesnt get me to buy anything, it just pesters me about a thing long after I have purchased said thing
