I'm not going to answer this in regard to Facebook specifically, because I can't imagine a circumstance where I would be willing to use a Facebook product.

But since this idea has been brought up by a number of ad companies (Google, most notably), I can answer in the more general sense.

I would not support ad targeting done that way. It is a bit less objectionable, but it doesn't really address my objections to the entire practice.
