FTC Creates New Guidelines for Native Advertising: Helpful or Hindrance? image

In December, the FTC released a Policy Statement on Deceptively Formatted Ads, i.e. Native Advertisements. Since then, it has proven controversial. What’s the Issue with Native Advertisements?

In fact, Contently surveyed 509 males and females to find if consumers could tell the difference between ads and articles. ...
