"FB investigated FB and found FB not guilty"
- shostack 10y agoFwiw sounds like they are opening up to independent third party review with viewability vendors like Integral. Now if only they'd let me use DCM tags to measure impression data and VTs.
- lifeisstillgood 10y agoDCM tags? VTs?
- Mtinie 10y ago'DCM' = DoubleClick Campaign Manager tags 'VT', in this context, probably meant 'viewability tracking' or 'viewability targeting'.
- cgvgffyv 10y agoAnd people worry we won't have enough jobs when the robots take over.
- shostack 10y agoActually in this case VT refers to View-Throughs, ie. post-impression performance or conversions that occur from someone who sees a display ad impression, doesn't click, but later converts.
- Mtinie 10y agoAh, that makes better sense. Thank you!
- Dylan16807 10y agoA valid point, but it's ludicrous to report it as "FB found guilty".
- krige 10y agoWell, yes, it was just a paraphrase, maybe a bit exaggerated in this context.
- DominikR 10y agoSo what? That's what FB can do when they find an issue. You are free to sue them if you feel that you have lost money because of this. Go ahead, that's what courts are for. But I guess what many really want is for government to step in and use government force to punish FB until people feel that some kind of justice has been done. (burn the witch!) That's why democracy is fundamentally incompatible with liberty. On a side note: The media is attacking FB because they feel that FB doesn't censor and steer public opinion in the way they would like it to be. They are all up in arms claiming that Trump is FB's fault after they themselves have reported 24/7 on Trump. (but so biased, even Stalin would have cringed) That's the only reason why this article even exists.
