Should advertisers and publishers fear Google's Privacy Sandbox? Not really. What it does is: - Enable personalized advertising without relying on invasive tracking methods. - Use privacy-preserving technologies such as Federated Learning of Cohorts and Trust Tokens to target groups of users with similar interests, while maintaining individual privacy. - Improve user trust and engagement by delivering more relevant ads. - Create a more level playing field for advertisers by phasing out third-party cookies. - Give smaller advertisers more opportunities to compete with larger ad networks. - Offer a more sustainable and privacy-focused approach to online advertising that benefits both advertisers and users. #personalization #Google #marketing

Is Google's cookie crumble U-turn something digital advertisers can count on? After years of pushing to phase out third-party cookies in Chrome, Google has hit the brakes. This sharp narrative turn could undoubtedly be part of a larger strategy to tackle their antitrust lawsuit loss and upcoming display advertising lawsuit in September. You can also add all the issues reported with Privacy Sandbox's functionality and transparency. While Google plans to appeal this decision, the upcoming rulings could have far reaching effects into the future of Google's revenues from Search, Advertising, and AI. My underlying question: is the privacy sandbox a misfire that we don't have to worry about, or is it a boomerang waiting for these lawsuits to play-out?

Seems like we are moving more and more in an online advertising world where online tracking (cookies) is available for some subpopulations, but not for others. For example, due to consumer choices to opt-in to tracking (or not) under Apple ATT (iOS users), GDPR (EU residents), or now Google's new informed choice experience in Chrome. #onlineadvertising #cookiedeprecation #consumerprotection #privacy #privacysandbox #google HEC Paris, Hi!
