Google didn’t have this issue until they bought DoubleClick (text ads and they hosted). And they had pretty good privacy as they didn’t want to share shit.
After DC it all went to hell.

- heavenlyblue 1mo agoSo they are not hosting the ads? But either way, stuff like hashing content (and only whitelisting hashes which are approved) should solve that.
