- mpeg 10y agoGoogle is an ad network, not an ad agency. All ads should meet the Initial Better Ads Standards at the very least, we're not talking about creative quality here, we're talking about reducing user pain that things like fullscreen ads, autoplays, popups... create. It's a good start, but consumers deserve a better ad experience for approved formats too.

- kuschku 10y agoTheir ads meet the standards? YouTube doesn’t have auto-playing video ads with sound? YouTube doesn’t have countdown based ads blocking the content? Google.com always has less than 3 ads?
