@RobertJBateman @PrivacyMatters I can’t imagine Trump’s win and the GOP’s won Senate bodes well for the current FTC and Chair either.

@PrivacyMatters It's frustrating—I don't even get a vote and I know about each candidate's policy positions. I don't get how you can know so little about politics to believe that a US presidential candidate could campaign without policy proposals. Trump had some too, but Harris's were imo better

I wrote a piece on what the FTC is trying to tell Adtech companies through their recent enforcement actions.
tldr: sensitive data is way more broad than you think, and YOU have culpability for the actions of companies you share data with.

THIS is actually one of the MOST consequential things of 2024 for privacy and for competition - in terms of consumers impacted, scope, financial impact, industry requirments, very strict privacy standard, competition...

🥃Just as peat adds character to scotch, Privacy-Enhancing Ad Technologies (PEATs) are adding complexity to digital ads. As the online ad industry reaches a crossroads, my new research explores the real-world adoption of Google’s #PrivacySandbox across 60,000 websites. 🧵👇 1/10

This is insane because by Google's own accord, they met the CMA requirements:
"Early testing from ad tech companies, including Google, has indicated that the Privacy Sandbox APIs have the potential to achieve these outcomes. And we expect that overall performance using Privacy Sandbox APIs will improve over time as industry adoption increases."
🤯
Despite immense resource constraints and looming revenue loss, publishers have been spending the last 3+ years restructuring and investing in future-proofing their businesses to prepare for signal loss.
What's more of a call to arms?
i) the control google exercised when it planned on deprecating cookies, or
ii) the shitstorm that ensues when they decide to change plans
If anything this proves that Google is even more of a monopoly.
Google will inevitably evolve from voluntary user opt out to requiring explicit opt in (similar to Apple's ATT).
With this new lease on cookies, publishers have the freedom to truly own their audience, data, pipes and destiny. Don't be complacent.

BREAKING: @Google scraps years-long plans to eliminate 3rd party cookies on Chrome. They'll remain running for those who don’t disable them, but Google plans to debut a new prompt that "elevates user choice." My story for @TheDrum: thedrum.com/news/2024/07/2…

My take (based on quick read ) cookies still "going" - unless users "opt-in", make an informed choice.

Today is a big day for the Privacy Sandbox team. privacysandbox.com/intl/en_us/new… We announced that we’re proposing a new approach to Sandbox on the web that we believe works for the entire industry (publishers, devs, advertisers, etc.). We plan to prioritize user choice in order to support a competitive marketplace as we advance privacy-enhancing tech. And in case that wasn’t enough Sandbox news, our colleagues on the Ads team also published sell-side/buy-side results showing the current potential of the APIs. Buy-side: support.google.com/google-ads/ans… Sell-side: support.google.com/admanager/answ… As we said last week, we expect performance to continue to improve as adoption expands, and believe there is a significant opportunity for companies who are investing in privacy-preserving technologies. privacysandbox.com/news/learnings… We know you have questions, but we wanted to announce this new path early as we understand this transition requires significant work. Looking forward to sharing more soon!

@eric_seufert Will be eagerly looking forward to your next podcast on this, @eric_seufert . What an incredible 'drop out' start to a week.

@PrivacyMatters Seems like a case of poor Pixel configuration. Ironically, though, the USPS is one of the largest offline data sellers and contributes to much of the junk it then delivers.

@SlackHQ @QuinnyPig Well… you need to re-write this promptly, it is really incongruent messaging. The plain reading of that sentence is that you train models on customer messages. If that’s not what you do you should make that clear before this PR mess goes even more viral!

May be unpopular opinion, but we need to distinguish warranted concerns about copyright infringement, exploitable vulnerabilities and national security from unreasonable outrage over readily warned about inaccuracies. #openai. #noyb #genai #privacy

@sawickipedia @aripap Yes! The UK has a history of workable quasi-regulatory models to do just that. Premium SMS was such an area.

@aripap Ahhh that makes more sense - yeah the user masking proxy is kinda the whole key to the system & should be a neutral 3p

Tl;dr: Sandbox has major structural problems that aren’t close to being resolved.

🚨@CMAgovUK just released their report on Google’s Privacy Sandbox. This is a thread of key points. For the CMA the unanswered questions are: 1⃣How to ensure design doesn't self preference. 2⃣What does long term governance look like. 3⃣Should 1P Data usage be restricted on O&O.
