Factors That Are Propelling Ad Blocking
Ads:
Volume & Intrusive Behavior
Distribution:
Firefox & Chrome
Demographics:
Technology Embracing
Consumers Aren’t Blocking for the Sake of Blocking
They’re Blocking How Ads
Are Behaving.
This Isn’t an Arbitrary Act. What Should Ad Tech
Take Away From This?
If Ad Blocking on Desktop is Chapter 1...
Ad Blocking on Mobile is Chapter 2.
Ad Blocking on Mobile is a Must
Mobile Form-Factor = More Intrusive Ads:
Ads: Much more disruptive to user-experience. Tracking: Much more personal.
Why Hasn’t Mobile Ad Blocking Exploded?
Apple & Google:
Tight OS Control. Tight App Distribution Control.
Carriers Enter the Game. Apple Enters the Game.
Game Changers
Even Google is Second Guessing
Google CEO, Larry Page:
“Part of it is the industry needs to do better at producing ads that are less annoying and that are quicker to
load, and all those things. And I think we need to do a better job of that as an industry.”
Brand Innovation:
Consumer Champion Strategies
Uniquely Positioned:
Can Roll-Out Ad Blocking at Scale
Why Carriers?
