Why do people hate personalized ads so much? I understand hating ads in general, but why something personalized is worse than just random spam?

EDIT ---

Ok, I get it now. Personalized ads = surveillance. Fair enough.

Doesn't the whole GDPR already cover it though? You can opt out of the surveillance.

Random spam is just random spam. Personalized ads are based on behavioural data that they have harvested from people, it seems that makes people feel iffy about it. Seems some do care about privacy after all.
