How do you figure out what is a malicious ad? That seems really difficult at scale.
- wredcoll 26d agoIf you're asking socially, you don't, that's the benefit of writing laws instead of programs. If you're asking technically, well, google made over 400 billion dollars last year, they can spend some of that to figure it out. Or stop serving ads. Just because it's difficult to do safely doesn't mean you get to just do it anyways because there's profit involved.

- breakingcups 25d agoDo the words "at scale" magically remove all responsibility and reliability?
