The news: A Teads survey of 555 publishers in 38 countries found that only 32% have begun preparing for the end of third-party cookies on Google Chrome.

They’re not alone: The advertising industry is adjusting its practices at a slow rate. When Google began its transition to the Privacy Sandbox earlier this year, the industry cried foul and said it wasn’t ready for the change.
Google delayed the end of cookies for a third time last month when UK regulators warned that the Privacy Sandbox didn’t meet new privacy standards, giving advertisers their wish.

Ad Tech Is Not Big Tech

The internet is changing in 2024. Although the general public and lawmakers largely don’t understand how the ad-supported internet works, what isn’t discussed is how 'Big Tech' purposefully plays a role in that obfuscation.

As government has yet to enact unified privacy legislation, state governments have enacted laws as stopgaps. To be clear, almost all ad tech companies champion privacy as a central, non-negotiable part of the free internet’s future. That said, it’s not 'ad tech' companies - but 'big tech' companies that drive the conversation around privacy and its implementation. Big tech literally dictates the privacy agenda via unilateral changes to its software and platforms that impact millions of consumers and billions of media dollars without any consideration other than profits.

Out of chaos comes order. At least, that’s the hope for a group of marketers who’ve been hit by one ad tech disaster after another lately.

First, they cringed at Forbes selling ads on a shady site built to game ad spending. Then, they were floored by Colossus misrepresenting traded IDs. Now, they’re worried these issues are just the tip of the iceberg. Some are already taking action. “We’re probably looking at cutting out 60% of our partners,” said the head of programmatic on behalf of advertisers at a global agency who asked to remain anonymous due to the sensitive nature of the issue.

That’s around five of the dozen supply-side platforms (SSPs) the agency works with, continued the exec, who added, “they’re the ones we can really trust.”
