Will start in the US and then expand globally. Not a small task; will take a few years.
No, this will not solve all problems with bad ads but it is an important step toward accountability. https://t.co/EWgma1jwTi
New: Google will require all advertisers to go through a identity verification process, previously required for political advertisers. When consumers click "Why this ad?" starting this summer they'll see advertiser running the ad and the country it's based https://t.co/2ZjbVbAhe5

Amid a flood of sketchy ads, Google will force all advertisers to verify their identities, as it does already for political advertisers. Consumers can see basic information about an advertiser and choose whether to block all of the company's ads.https://t.co/t6TwYHJxGF

This is very good news. However our congressional representatives should pass legislation mandating this verification across all online platforms -- if you buy an advert, you need to disclose your identity. No hidden financial transactions. https://t.co/YMFxxYe7i1

This is good. Should become the standard. https://t.co/EWgma1jwTi

This is good.

But even better: everyone install UBlock Origin & Privacy Badger and never see ads again. https://t.co/rMp1B5FoY9
Everything is political.
— Luca Hammer (@luca) April 23, 2020
Google will show who paid for all ads in the future. Not only political ones.
Hopefully everyone will be added to the as archives as well.https://t.co/fCMXYPjpix
For 20 years Google didn’t verify the identity of its advertisers.
— Rebecca Rivers (@Tri_Becca90) April 23, 2020
Let that sink in. https://t.co/pEm3QH1XJB
This is excellent news. I applaud @Google leadership for taking this step to improve the hygiene and frankly safety of the digital ecosystem. This is an excellent example that other platforms should consider following. https://t.co/UlRDqAtNTI

New Google ad policy - You have to verify your identity before you can buy ads. The better question is: what took so long? W/ @tiffkhsu https://t.co/flaeU0wUHC

Googleは、同社が提供する広告プラットフォームでの広告主の情報をID化し、すべての広告でこの表示を義務づけると表明。これによりユーザは、管理機能で不快・虚偽と思える広告主の抑止を行うことができる。これまでの同社のポリシーは、政治広告についてのみ適用してきた|https://t.co/9UXnuV5gmo

Google広告に本人確認が必要になるとの事。まず米国から。
— おおき/SEOコンサルタント (@ossan_mini) April 23, 2020
Google広告なのでYouTube広告とかにも全部波及するね。
ASPランキング上位の法人でG広告で集客してるところはランキングが入れ替わる可能性もあるな。https://t.co/TOeYmOKSah
