This. I would go out on a limb and offer that Axciom has likely invested more in compliance in this regard than most other companies on the planet. People may not agree with their stance, but it has yet to be successfully challenged in cour

This describes my journey somewhat. Started at ad and media agencies, was client side at tech companies, and gradually got more and more into the analytics, data, and technical bits. I've held marketing and media leadership roles. But

But wouldn't these people still exist and not trust the outcome regardless? I wonder what the media consumption of these individuals looks like beyond Facebook.
