Deep dives
The Evolution of Digital Advertising Paradigms
Digital advertising has undergone a significant transformation, marked by the introduction of Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) in July 2021. This policy created a distinct shift from the previous paradigm, where data flowed freely among advertisers and platforms like Facebook, known for its hub and spoke model. The ATT restricted the transmission of valuable user data, particularly affecting iOS users, and fundamentally altered how advertisers gather and utilize consumer insights for targeting. The new operating environment requires advertisers to obtain user consent for data sharing, fundamentally changing the dynamics of digital advertising and limiting the effectiveness of targeted ads.
