A Google spokesperson said the Edmonton and Albany sites were not violating any of its policies
So, even having their attention called to this fraud, they do nothing.
- ekianjo 7y agoAre they doing Google Ads fraud or ad fraud not related to Google?
- TheCapeGreek 7y agoI'm not as up to date with Google's public opinions on moderating truth (a very sticky thing indeed), but it seems to me they're taking the opposite approach to Facebook (for all its ills and merits). If anyone has more direct info, please post it. FB is getting all the attention these days with truth and whatnot.
- throwaway2048 7y agoThis article has nothing to do with disinformation/"Fake news" It has not much to do with censoring people, and more that this "popularity" of these sites is almost certainly driven by illegitimate means (scripts, botting, popups, malware etc), purely to collect ad revenue. After all who is going to bother with such worthless and out of date articles from a completely unknown "news" org. The fact its extremely obvious, and Google can't even be bothered bodes poorly for the veracity of the online ad ecosystem.
