All these orgs are taking advantage of the 'Google Grants' program, which provides up to $10,000 per month in free search advertising for registered nonprofits. $120,000/yr in free ads for the cost of registering a nonprofit seems like a no-brainer for spreading a message. Likely drives up ad prices and gives a nice tax-break to Google, so they win too.

- fHr 2y agothis is insane and shows how dangerous big tech is, break them up already
- actionfromafar 2y agoThese incentives are incredibly misaligned. How big is this tax loop hole to Google? Truck sized or Battlestar sized?
- rapind 2y agoSo to summarize, someone saw the Google Grants program, figured out how to abuse it and scaled it up. I wouldn't even call this much of a loop hole because it seems so obvious. How widespread / prevalent is this? Does Google care? Is Google incentivized to not care? Is it such a small drop in the bucket that it's basically irrelevant (and boring)? I wonder if we'd see the same on other ad platforms like Facebook.
