#UID2
Most people cheered when third-party cookies died.

The ad industry just moved to something stronger: UID2.

Email address → UID2. Same on every site → data sharing. Anyone can generate your UID2 & cross-reference for targeted attacks.

UID2: The Standard That Replaced the Cookie
The ad industry didn’t just replace the tracking cookie with your email address. It built a global standard to industrialize the replacement – and buried a phishing vulnerability inside it.

the logical buyer is The Trade Desk—they could take out the janky "Privacy Sandbox" stuff and put in UID2, OpenPass, and consent management. Not all users would leave the ad features on, but TTD would be able to give those who do a better experience with less nagging for consent and emails

Roku has taken a bold step toward the future of online advertising by announcing it will adopt a technology called Unified ID 2.0 (UID2) across its premium streaming inventory. #Roku #UID2 #AdTech #DigitalAdvertising #StreamingTV #CookieAlternative tinyurl.com/ys2mv6vd

They really should have just acquired Vizio before Walmarts offer. Immediate scale, it’s small enough you could almost offer cash entirely, and it’s 10s of M of logins converted to OpenPass/UID2 overnight. Tweak the OS however you want from there and bobs your uncle.

• Sincera integration ongoing; Open Sincera and Deal Desk yet to launch
• UID2 adoption strong, but some publishers still under-monetizing
• Macro uncertainty and cautious brand budgets require continued focus on efficiency

Global adoption of programmatic advertising is rising. In Hong Kong, luxury skincare brand Sulwhasoo leveraged UID2 identity technology to optimize acquisition strategies. The campaign drove a 6x increase in store visits, 380% higher conversion rates, and an 80% reduction in acquisition costs.

Imagine a browser with built-in OpenPass, UID2, and consent management. Much less hassle for users. (Since The Trade Desk is doing a smart TV OS it makes sense to have a companion browser for second-screening with better attribution features)

Having both TV OS and browser is the real win. If the browser and the TV are both using OpenPass + UID2, then attribution works so much more reliably.

And second screening is a thing—might as well give agencies the platform to use it in creative + effective ways
