Thanks, Google: We=E2=80=99re still seeing major brands funding toxic sites=
after Adalytics=E2=80=99 expos=C3=A9
Two weeks ago, a massive report from Adalytics exposed Google=E2=80=99s lit=
tle-known practice of serving search ads on websites featuring everything f=
rom hardcore pornography to disinformation. Brands (and Google) scrambled t=
o fix it.
But we know how long it takes Google to clean up its messes, so we dug deep=
er into the issue.
Bad news for brands: It=E2=80=99s still happening =E2=80=94 despite Google=
=E2=80=99s VP of global ads, Dan Taylor, calling the issue =E2=80=9Cwildly =
exaggerated.=E2=80=9D
We=E2=80=99ve found that over a week after the Adalytics report was publish=
ed, major brands, including Procter & Gamble=E2=80=99s Charlie Banana, the =
U.S. Coast Guard, and Amnesty International are all unintentionally running=
ads on brand unsafe websites, including Breitbart.
Those websites feature adult content, host disinformation, or are run out o=
f Iran, almost certainly putting them under US sanctions.
Yeah, we know. It=E2=80=99s bad. Read our full report here.

Disinformation scholar Joan Donovan says Harvard pushed her out to make Met=
a happy
Billionaires shouldn=E2=80=99t be able to buy institutional silence, but it=
looks like Meta may have tried to. In a whistleblower complaint, Dr. Joan =
Donovan, who is also on our board, says Harvard forced her out to appease M=
eta.
Why? Because the school was set to receive $500 million from Mark Zuckerber=
g=E2=80=99s charity, and her work as a scholar there that showed how Facebo=
ok harms society =E2=80=9Cwas making trouble for the donors,=E2=80=9D she t=
old CNN.
We unequivocally support Dr. Donovan, and encourage all those who work for =
transparency and accountability to do the same.
=20
Global brands are funding the spread of pro-Kremlin propaganda, a new repor=
t says
Coca-Cola, Google, Procter & Gamble, and other major international brands a=
re sending millions of dollars in ads to outlets that push disinformation, =
according to the Balkans Free Media Initiative (BFMI) and the Center for Re=
search, Transparency and Accountability.
The report details how advertiser dollars went to spreading:
Kremlin narratives tied to the Ukraine invasion
Government propaganda
Attacks on the media and political opposition
Pieces that work to undermine democratic values
The good news: The BFMI applied our playbook and got two companies =E2=80=
=94 Bosch and Lidl =E2=80=94 to drop a major Russian disinformation site pu=
shing anti-democratic sentiment in Europe.
We're proud to have supported this important report and will keep demanding=
transparency so advertisers can make decisions about who they're funding f=
or themselves.
=20
The past week was a good reminder that what we do can reverberate around th=
e world =E2=80=94 and that the people with power are paying attention.=20
Hugs,
Nandini & Claire

Thanks, Google: We’re still seeing major brands funding toxic sites after Adalytics’ exposé
Two weeks ago, a massive report from Adalytics exposed Google’s little-known practice of serving search ads on websites featuring everything from hardcore pornography to disinformation. Brands (and Google) scrambled to fix it.
But we know how long it takes Google to clean up its messes, so we dug deeper into the issue.
Bad news for brands: It’s still happening — despite Google’s VP of global ads, Dan Taylor, calling the issue “wildly exaggerated.”
We’ve found that over a week after the Adalytics report was published, major brands, including Procter & Gamble’s Charlie Banana, the U.S. Coast Guard, and Amnesty International are all unintentionally running ads on brand unsafe websites, including Breitbart.
Those websites feature adult content, host disinformation, or are run out of Iran, almost certainly putting them under US sanctions.
Yeah, we know. It’s bad. Read our full report here.
Disinformation scholar Joan Donovan says Harvard pushed her out to make Meta happy
Billionaires shouldn’t be able to buy institutional silence, but it looks like Meta may have tried to. In a whistleblower complaint, Dr. Joan Donovan, who is also on our board, says Harvard forced her out to appease Meta.
Why? Because the school was set to receive $500 million from Mark Zuckerberg’s charity, and her work as a scholar there that showed how Facebook harms society “was making trouble for the donors,” she told CNN.
We unequivocally support Dr. Donovan, and encourage all those who work for transparency and accountability to do the same.
Global brands are funding the spread of pro-Kremlin propaganda, a new report says
Coca-Cola, Google, Procter & Gamble, and other major international brands are sending millions of dollars in ads to outlets that push disinformation, according to the Balkans Free Media Initiative (BFMI) and the Center for Research, Transparency and Accountability.
The report details how advertiser dollars went to spreading:
Kremlin narratives tied to the Ukraine invasion
Government propaganda
Attacks on the media and political opposition
Pieces that work to undermine democratic values
The good news: The BFMI applied our playbook and got two companies — Bosch and Lidl — to drop a major Russian disinformation site pushing anti-democratic sentiment in Europe.
We're proud to have supported this important report and will keep demanding transparency so advertisers can make decisions about who they're funding for themselves.
The past week was a good reminder that what we do can reverberate around the world — and that the people with power are paying attention.
Hugs,
Nandini & Claire

Thanks, Google: We’re still seeing major brands funding toxic sites after Adalytics’ exposé
Two weeks ago, a massive report from Adalytics exposed Google’s little-known practice of serving search ads on websites featuring everything from hardcore pornography to disinformation. Brands (and Google) scrambled to fix it.
But we know how long it takes Google to clean up its messes, so we dug deeper into the issue.
Bad news for brands: It’s still happening — despite Google’s VP of global ads, Dan Taylor, calling the issue “wildly exaggerated.”
We’ve found that over a week after the Adalytics report was published, major brands, including Procter & Gamble’s Charlie Banana, the U.S. Coast Guard, and Amnesty International are all unintentionally running ads on brand unsafe websites, including Breitbart.
Those websites feature adult content, host disinformation, or are run out of Iran, almost certainly putting them under US sanctions.
Yeah, we know. It’s bad. Read our full report here.
Disinformation scholar Joan Donovan says Harvard pushed her out to make Meta happy
Billionaires shouldn’t be able to buy institutional silence, but it looks like Meta may have tried to. In a whistleblower complaint, Dr. Joan Donovan, who is also on our board, says Harvard forced her out to appease Meta.
Why? Because the school was set to receive $500 million from Mark Zuckerberg’s charity, and her work as a scholar there that showed how Facebook harms society “was making trouble for the donors,” she told CNN.
We unequivocally support Dr. Donovan, and encourage all those who work for transparency and accountability to do the same.
Global brands are funding the spread of pro-Kremlin propaganda, a new report says
Coca-Cola, Google, Procter & Gamble, and other major international brands are sending millions of dollars in ads to outlets that push disinformation, according to the Balkans Free Media Initiative (BFMI) and the Center for Research, Transparency and Accountability.
The report details how advertiser dollars went to spreading:
Kremlin narratives tied to the Ukraine invasion
Government propaganda
Attacks on the media and political opposition
Pieces that work to undermine democratic values
The good news: The BFMI applied our playbook and got two companies — Bosch and Lidl — to drop a major Russian disinformation site pushing anti-democratic sentiment in Europe.
We're proud to have supported this important report and will keep demanding transparency so advertisers can make decisions about who they're funding for themselves.
The past week was a good reminder that what we do can reverberate around the world — and that the people with power are paying attention.
Hugs,
Nandini & Claire
