Don't see what the problem is, most of these big brands love to fuck people.
Because in porn it’s consensual and enjoyed by both parties. They don’t want customers getting any ideas.
Today's pegging is sponsored by Nestle.
Today's bondage is brought to you by Pepsi.
Banggood ?
Better seen on Pornhub next to some anal fisting than on Twitter/X next to blatant nazi propaganda.
Many sites have to get rid of adult content because of complains. Now what they are also going to blame porn sites for having porn?
Like people who move next door to a live music venue and complain about the noise.
Or ones who move in next to a pig farm and complain about the smell
who the fuck cares why is this bad
Be quiet, the only reason you can masturbate in peace without being flooded with ads is because advertisers think it hurts their business.
without being flooded with ads
You never went to a random porn site from Google search with a dozen pop-ups and 30 consecutive re-directs?
i only volunteer to watch ads nowadays
It’s more of a major goof on googles part than anything bad. These big prudish companies will start to pull ads if they think their brand is at risk. Apple has had rumors of expanding their ad network so if Google keeps slipping they might step in.
imagine not buying a MacBook because you seen it next to a vagina
these companies are idiots if they think anyone gives a fuck about this
imagine not buying a MacBook because you seen it next to a vagina
this is exactly what religious nutjobs usually do
They would have only seen that combination if they had gone looking for the vagina though...
The headline leaves out the most important part. Ads aren't only being shown on porn sites, but they're also appearing on websites that are hosted by sanctioned countries (eg, Russia). If those websites are getting kickbacks from Google, that violates laws. The EU is already investigating it.
Youtube: Nooooo!! You can't say the fuck-fuck word in the first three minutes of the video and you can't cover content that isn't friendly to our advertisers!! If you do anything out of line we will demonetize you!!!
Meanwhile, Google:
As usual, ~~redditors~~ lemmings commenting on an article they haven't read. This isn't just about your brand appearing on a standard porn site. It's also about your brand appearing on disinformation sites like Breitbart. Also, if your ads appear on those sites, it means that very probably your money is ALSO going to those sites.
I mean the problem really started with a headline that misrepresents the article
did they blame the client for caring, and then sue whomever discovered it? i hear thats very popular lately.
Caught? Is this illegal?
Contract violation for brand safety and media buy. Possibly fraud.
Imagine buying a vegan gluten free cake for 30 bucks. The baker gives you a dairy and gluten cake actually worth 15 bucks retail price.
Hold on a second.
Someone saw these ads and thought "I should admit to my porn habits to spread this information that materially doesn't affect me, but puts revenue in Googles wallet and probably doesn't harm the big brands at all?"
Can people not separate ads from what ever they are reading/watching in their minds?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
According to an Adalytics report, the Google Search Partner Network (SPN) has allegedly been putting brands at risk of all of these undesirable placements without advertisers fully realizing the dangers.
Among those impacted were big brands—like Amazon, Apple, BMW, Home Depot, Lego, Meta, Microsoft, Paramount+, Samsung, and Uber—and top government entities including the US Treasury and the European Commission.
Ads from nonprofits like the American Cancer Society and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, as well as major media outlets like The Guardian, The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal were also found on illegal or adult sites.
To determine roughly how seedy the SPN might be, Adalytics relied on open source data and web crawlers to flag search ads displayed on 7.2 million sites.
According to MediaPost, it has been estimated that the SPN "generates about $10.5 billion annually" for Google, while requiring advertisers to "acknowledge that our policies meet any image and reputation standards you may have for your company” before creating an ad campaign in its Search Network.
Adalytics' report included a disclaimer that its "study does not allege that any entities violated US Treasury or international sanctions or any other anti-money laundering (AML) laws."
