Hey friends,

We=E2=80=99re holding space for everyone during this tumultuous time. Pleas=
e take care of yourself, your loved ones, and your neighbor =E2=80=94 we co=
uld all use a little extra kindness right now.

Meanwhile, the wild world of adtech hasn=E2=80=99t slowed down =E2=80=94 so=
I=E2=80=99m hopping in with a few key updates.
The Future of Ad Control=20

Reviews of the proposed merger between Omicom and Interpublic, two of the l=
argest global ad agencies, are underway across multiple markets. Both the U=
K=E2=80=99s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) and the Federal Trade C=
ommission (FTC) have launched a formal review.

The U.S. review came as lawmakers across the political spectrum raised mult=
iple concerns, ranging from:

how, why, and by whom ad delivery is controlled

how free speech extends not only to content creators, but to advertisers as=
well

competitive viability of the advertising landscape

big tech's influence on the digital economy

While the U.S. has just conditionally approved the deal, the UK=E2=80=99s d=
ecision is still pending, and other global regulators may step in. This mer=
ger is not a done deal.

The outcome could reshape the future of advertising, media access, and wher=
e brands feel confident spending their money.
Open Data =3D Cleaner Data

A cool new thing is happening in ad tech! The Trade Desk just launched Open=
Sincera, a free tool that anyone can use to take a peek under the hood of a=
d monetization, designed to surface deeper insights into how digital advert=
ising performs and how healthy the supply chain is. Built on Sincera=E2=80=
=99s metadata, OpenSincera provides the entire ad industry with access to m=
etrics such as ads-to-content ratio, page weight, ads-in-view, and refresh =
rates =E2=80=94 all designed to enhance transparency and accountability acr=
oss the ecosystem.

=E2=80=9CWe=E2=80=99re opening the door for everyone who wants to make adve=
rtising more transparent and efficient. The more data we can put into the h=
ands of everyone in the advertising ecosystem the better it is for everyone=
and the open internet.=E2=80=9D said Mike O=E2=80=99Sullivan, GM, Product,=
The Trade Desk.

OpenSincera is available at open.sincera.io, let us know what you think!

Horizon Media has taken a bold step and has made its Request-for-Proposal (=
RFP) and Request-for-Information (RFI) processes public. At a time where ot=
her agencies are doubling down on opaque practices such as principal tradin=
g and incentive-based buying, Horizon stands apart with their commitment to=
placing their clients=E2=80=99 best interests first.
Meta Revenue Programs May Have Violated EU Sanctions

Our friends at What To Fix released a new investigation suggesting that Met=
a Platforms Ireland continued monetization deals with Russia Today (RT), Sp=
utnik (both government-controlled media outlets), and other EU-sanctioned e=
ntities well after the bans were in place. Meta has reportedly monetized RT=
and Sputnik via Facebook=E2=80=99s revenue programs since 2020. While the =
company initially demonetized these pages after Russia=E2=80=99s invasion o=
f Ukraine in 2022, it quietly reinstated several Sputnik pages between Octo=
ber 2022 and October 2023 =E2=80=94 despite ongoing EU sanctions.

The report warns that Meta=E2=80=99s ad systems may have funneled revenue t=
o propaganda outlets, calling for urgent regulatory oversight.
Add This To Your Reading List=20

Ad tech aficionado and ex-Google employee, Ari Paparo, unpacks the DOJ anti=
trust trial and exposes Big Tech=E2=80=99s grip on digital ads in his new b=
ook, Yield: How Google Bought, Built, and Bullied Its Way to Advertising Do=
minance.

As CEO of Marketecture Media, Ari sat through three weeks of testimony in t=
he DOJ=E2=80=99s antitrust case against Google =E2=80=94 alongside our own =
COO Arielle Garcia. As Ari puts it, Yield isn=E2=80=99t only for industry i=
nsiders. It=E2=80=99s written for anyone curious about how Google came to d=
ominate the digital ad ecosystem and what we lost along the way.
AI Is Hurting Communities =E2=80=94 We're Joining Forces To Stop It=20

We proudly joined over 240 civil and human rights organizations in urging t=
he Senate to remove a unprecedented provision (Sec. 43201) from H.R.1 that=
would block states from regulating AI for the next decade. As written, the=
bill would strip states of their ability to protect communities from discr=
imination, invasive surveillance, and AI-driven consumer harms.

Why did we sign on to this letter? We signed on because vulnerable communit=
ies across America are already experiencing harm by unregulated, surveillan=
ce-based AI systems. States have stepped up with protections where the fede=
ral government has not. We believe innovation must be accountable, equitabl=
e, and rooted in public trust, and that starts with the ability to act loca=
lly to prevent harm.

We urge Congress to strike this provision from H.R.1. and instead work with=
civil society organizations on drafting policies on AI that protect everyo=
ne.

Hey friends,

We’re holding space for everyone during this tumultuous time. Please take care of yourself, your loved ones, and your neighbor — we could all use a little extra kindness right now.

Meanwhile, the wild world of adtech hasn’t slowed down — so I’m hopping in with a few key updates.
The Future of Ad Control

Reviews of the proposed merger between Omicom and Interpublic, two of the largest global ad agencies, are underway across multiple markets. Both the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) have launched a formal review.

The U.S. review came as lawmakers across the political spectrum raised multiple concerns, ranging from:

how, why, and by whom ad delivery is controlled

how free speech extends not only to content creators, but to advertisers as well

competitive viability of the advertising landscape

big tech's influence on the digital economy

While the U.S. has just conditionally approved the deal, the UK’s decision is still pending, and other global regulators may step in. This merger is not a done deal.

The outcome could reshape the future of advertising, media access, and where brands feel confident spending their money.
Open Data = Cleaner Data

A cool new thing is happening in ad tech! The Trade Desk just launched OpenSincera, a free tool that anyone can use to take a peek under the hood of ad monetization, designed to surface deeper insights into how digital advertising performs and how healthy the supply chain is. Built on Sincera’s metadata, OpenSincera provides the entire ad industry with access to metrics such as ads-to-content ratio, page weight, ads-in-view, and refresh rates — all designed to enhance transparency and accountability across the ecosystem.

“We’re opening the door for everyone who wants to make advertising more transparent and efficient. The more data we can put into the hands of everyone in the advertising ecosystem the better it is for everyone and the open internet.” said Mike O’Sullivan, GM, Product, The Trade Desk.

OpenSincera is available at open.sincera.io, let us know what you think!

Horizon Media has taken a bold step and has made its Request-for-Proposal (RFP) and Request-for-Information (RFI) processes public. At a time where other agencies are doubling down on opaque practices such as principal trading and incentive-based buying, Horizon stands apart with their commitment to placing their clients’ best interests first.
Meta Revenue Programs May Have Violated EU Sanctions

Our friends at What To Fix released a new investigation suggesting that Meta Platforms Ireland continued monetization deals with Russia Today (RT), Sputnik (both government-controlled media outlets), and other EU-sanctioned entities well after the bans were in place. Meta has reportedly monetized RT and Sputnik via Facebook’s revenue programs since 2020. While the company initially demonetized these pages after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022, it quietly reinstated several Sputnik pages between October 2022 and October 2023 — despite ongoing EU sanctions.

The report warns that Meta’s ad systems may have funneled revenue to propaganda outlets, calling for urgent regulatory oversight.
Add This To Your Reading List

Ad tech aficionado and ex-Google employee, Ari Paparo, unpacks the DOJ antitrust trial and exposes Big Tech’s grip on digital ads in his new book, Yield: How Google Bought, Built, and Bullied Its Way to Advertising Dominance.

As CEO of Marketecture Media, Ari sat through three weeks of testimony in the DOJ’s antitrust case against Google — alongside our own COO Arielle Garcia. As Ari puts it, Yield isn’t only for industry insiders. It’s written for anyone curious about how Google came to dominate the digital ad ecosystem and what we lost along the way.
AI Is Hurting Communities — We're Joining Forces To Stop It

We proudly joined over 240 civil and human rights organizations in urging the Senate to remove a unprecedented provision (Sec. 43201) from H.R.1 that would block states from regulating AI for the next decade. As written, the bill would strip states of their ability to protect communities from discrimination, invasive surveillance, and AI-driven consumer harms.

Why did we sign on to this letter? We signed on because vulnerable communities across America are already experiencing harm by unregulated, surveillance-based AI systems. States have stepped up with protections where the federal government has not. We believe innovation must be accountable, equitable, and rooted in public trust, and that starts with the ability to act locally to prevent harm.

We urge Congress to strike this provision from H.R.1. and instead work with civil society organizations on drafting policies on AI that protect everyone.



With kindness,

Iesha White, Director of Intelligence
