Looking forward to taking over the main stage this morning at Marketecture Live.
I'll be doing a fireside chat with FTC Commissioner Mark Meador to get his take on the future of industry self regulation, the viability of cookie opt out tools and the current trajectory of AI use in the ads space.
Not sure i can come up with a list of 20 Dem politicians that I wouldn't vote out tomorrow if given the chance.
The post 911 acquiescence was bad, but you could at least appreciate Dems as painted into a corner.
Today? No idea wtf most them are doing.

Per Wendy Davis: "Virginia's unanimously passed a bill banning the sale of precise location data.
What's the next domino to fall? How many years does the precise location data space have at this point? Can some of the 40 Cali registered data brokers pivot?

My regulatory question of the week.
Lots of intimate data being input into AI chatbots. What happens to that data AFTER input? OpenAI is promising that it won't be used over time to create profiles for advertising.
But having it used for advertising might be the least of your concerns....
Here are some regulatory questions for the week of Feb 16.
Pls share your answers.

AI Content Marketplaces are a great idea... if only we could get Google, OpenAI and the rest of the AI companies to consistently pay for the content they are taking.
The question is.... HOW?

I'm looking for a podcast guest who can speak to the public policy, legal and power dynamics taking place as Governments across the globe are trying to grapple with Grok's enablement and generation of sexualized images. Pls DM me.
In the podcast, we talk about the DROP deletion mechanism and Tom patiently engages in a broader discussion of the policy goals. In the article, I share some reccomendations for the ad industry as as well as CalPrivacy. www.monopolyreportpod.com/episode-64-t...
What are the goals of CalPrivacy - California's privacy regulator? What are they looking to accomplish in 2026? @tomkemp00.bsky.social of CalPrivacy was kind enough to join me on @monopolyreport.bsky.social podcast this week - and I wrote a side-car article at monopoly-report.com/p/ccpa-vs-bi...
I'm not certain that Palantir meets the statutory definition of a data broker.

I asked @daphnek.bsky.social how these new requirements will work in practice - she illustrates how the "new" rules put long established processes used by millions of websites into question.
EU Court of Justice in Russmedia surfaced a semi-hidden tension between the GDPR and e-commerce directive. @daphnek.bsky.social joins me on this week's @monopolyreport.bsky.social podcast to break it all down. Here is an overview of the goal of intermediary liability provisions. tinyurl.com/yjspkcs9
Privacy (or lack thereof) is starting to get in the way of exits for ad tech founders.
