On the surface, made-for-advertising sites don't sound that harmful. After all, how much damage could sites specifically designed for ad-serving purposes really cause? It turns out, a lot.

Additional coverage:

  • This week's Digiday+ Future of TV Briefing looks at how this year's upfront negotiations are shaking out and how the writers' and actors' strikes could further reshape the market.
  • For the latest edition of our Confessions series, in which we exchange anonymity for candor, Digiday spoke to an expert publicist who has managed PR for several prominent esports organizations.
  • We're getting closer to the actual beginning of the end of the third-party cookie, but marketers aren't as worried about targeting and measuring ads in the post-cookie world as you might think — especially in the case of brands.
  • With back-to-school season starting in September, JanSport has taken the initiative to target Gen Z students before the shopping period kicks off to get a jump on their competitors.
