A new study by the Trustworthy Accountability Group (TAG) has detailed a successful fightback against ad-supported piracy.
The first annual report for TAG’s Project Brand Integrity (PBI) initiative found that direct outreach by PBI prompted a large majority of UK advertisers (79 percent) to reduce their ad impressions on pirate sites.
Moreover, nearly half of that group (43 percent) ended nearly all ads on such sites while, among the brands that reduced their ads, there was an overall reduction of advertising on pirate sites by nearly two-thirds (66 percent).
