Google in Hot Water – Accused of Profiting from Unseen Video Ads

Google in Hot Water - Accused of Profiting from Unseen Video Ads

Google is facing serious allegations of deception regarding its TrueView advertising system. The tech giant is accused of misrepresenting the placement of YouTube video advertisements on low-quality third-party websites where they were probably never viewed.

This alleged misrepresentation could have enabled Google to garner millions, possibly billions, from advertisers for video ads that were likely not seen. Advertisers, understandably unhappy, are now demanding refunds.

Adalytics Report Reveals Unsettling Facts

A report by Adalytics, an advertisement analytics organization, has uncovered alarming facts about Google’s advertising system. It says that between 42 to 75 percent of the spending on TrueView in-stream ads was directed towards Google Video Partner (GVP) sites and apps. The issue? Many of these sites and apps are believed to fall short of Google’s own quality benchmarks.

In simple terms, as many as three-fourths of the commercials booked through Google were not properly displayed.

These ads, featured in videos on third-party websites and applications, were often unseen due to muting, positioning off the page, or being scaled down to unnoticeable sizes.

TrueView, a unique cost-per-view ad format developed by Google, is designed to serve ads on YouTube, millions of apps, and across the entire web spectrum. It pledges to deliver advertisers more value by charging only for actual views of their ads rather than impressions.

However, Adalytics presents a different perspective on the value offered by Google’s TrueView ads. The organization suggests that these ads often provide less value because many TrueView in-stream ads are served as muted, auto-playing out-stream videos or obscured video players on independent sites.

Google’s Defense and Ongoing Scrutiny

In response to these claims, Marvin Renaud, director of global video solutions at Google, defended the company in a blog post. Renaud firmly stated that the majority of YouTube ad campaigns are, in fact, deployed directly on YouTube, not on third-party websites, as alleged.

Renaud also mentioned that advertisers have the option to prevent their ads from appearing on GVP sites and that Google maintains strict, enforced policies for third-party partners.

Nevertheless, Dr. Krzysztof Franaszek, the mind behind Adalytics Research, raised objections to Google’s counter-arguments. He pointed out Google’s notable omission of critical terms like ‘in-stream’, ‘out-stream’, ‘volume’, ‘muted’, ‘audible’, and ‘sound’, which were frequently used in his report.

Advertising watchdogs have also expressed skepticism about Google’s response.

There are so many strange contradictions here that don’t add up that I’m not inclined to believe Google’s defense of their system.Nandini Jammi, co-founder of CheckMyAds

The report’s allegations could potentially lead to a substantial refund of TrueView revenue. Dr. Augustine Fou, an independent ad fraud researcher, stated, “Google has paid out refunds before, but those come with gag orders, so the recipient of the refund cannot talk about it for the rest of their lives.”

Pertinent questions about certification, accountability, and the viability of independent audits have been raised amidst the controversy. As Fou put it, “The sham of certification and fraud verification” should be made clearer.

This transparency could enable large advertisers to come together in a class-action lawsuit, finally forcing Google to address the issue head-on.
