I'd expect the push to come from browser vendors. Either by blocking ads that aren't in those elements by default, or feeding them garbage data.
- newsbinator 8y agoThere could be a technical definition of an ad: "user-visible text or image(s) meant to advertise a product or service, separate from the primary purpose or offer of the page in which it is embedded" ... or something. IANAL.
- flingo 8y agoFor an easy solution, you could leave it up to browser developers. More complicated: anything you were paid to put on your website. Exceptions for integrated advertisements/ads embedded in videos. This won't really hit people doing self-serve or custom ads much, but it'll cover the vast majority of the web.
