[ads] Fetch anti-targeting, conversion and purchase intent CRX component based on GeoIP location
Description
Since regional capabilities are still being actively updated, we need to monitor those changes closely. To reduce risk, this change uses the variations service to provide the Geo IP for anti-targeting, conversions, and purchase intent, bringing these signals in line with how ads are served based on Geo IP. Previously, we used the device region, which isn’t standard practice for advertisers.
Chromium also uses the variations service behind the scenes for regional capabilities.
- [ ] Anti-targeting
- [ ] Conversions
- [ ] Purchase intent
