Yes, to accounts ONLY following Nazis and major advertisers and nobody else.

As an advertiser, I would not care - did you put my brand next to a post promoting nazis or not?

As an advertiser, I'm not sure that I care about "brand damage" for fake accounts that only follow nazis, with fake traffic generated; just don't charge me for it.

This makes sense when you consider ads to represent or agree with the opinion of the nearby posts. I don't think advertisers would like that either.
