Self-Disclosure May Not Be Enough When It Comes to Online Political Ads

Facebook and Twitter both took steps last week to provide more transparent paid political advertising on their platforms.

Senators Crack Down On Facebook And Other Platforms With A Bill To Regulate Online Political Ads

If lawmakers have anything to do with it, political ads on Facebook, Google, Twitter and other online platforms may soon be subject to the same disclosure requirements as traditional political advertising.

Fake Russian Ads Could Have Very Real Implications For Facebook

The latest fire at Facebook has been lit by Russia, which allegedly bought ads to destabilize the US, and the fallout might force Facebook to change the way it does business. “If Facebook really wants to respond to the public outcry, it’s going to have to leave money on the table,” said David Carroll, a...
