What's with all the idiots downvoting the factual replies? Good god Redditors are a hive minded bunch.

Insane. Each platform has ginormous teams only dealing with ads moderation and ad policy. Endless meetings about what signals to use to detect fraud, counterfeits, etc. I know because I’ve worked on the issues. It’s not as clearcut as one would think to try to establish moderation policies that can be applied universally without blocking bona fide advertisers.

Redditors, or sock puppets from said companies doing damage control?

You have to provide evidence before you call something "factual"

It’s not actually a factual reply, though. Especially not without provided evidence.
