This week's review of ad fraud and privacy in the digital advertising space:
Pixalate this week released the Q1 2023 CTV Bundle ID Mapping Report, a study of billions of open programmatic CTV ad transactions in Q1 2023 to provide insights into the scale of variations in CTV Bundle IDs. Find out more in this blog and get free access to the report below.
We also released the April 2023 CTV App Spoofing Report, where we highlight unique forms of invalid traffic (IVT), inclusive of “ad fraud,” across the Connected TV (CTV) open programmatic advertising marketplace. Read more in this blog and access the report below.
This week we also released the March 2023 Publisher Trust Index (PTI), a global approach to quality measurement and monthly rankings of the world's mobile and Connected TV (CTV) apps, bringing transparency to the programmatic advertising ecosystem. You can find out more in this blog and check out the rankings below.

Per the MRC, “'Fraud' is not intended to represent fraud as defined in various laws, statutes and ordinances or as conventionally used in U.S. Court or other legal proceedings, but rather a custom definition strictly for advertising measurement purposes. Also per the MRC, “‘Invalid Traffic’ is defined generally as traffic that does not meet certain ad serving quality or completeness criteria, or otherwise does not represent legitimate ad traffic that should be included in measurement counts. Among the reasons why ad traffic may be deemed invalid is it is a result of non-human traffic (spiders, bots, etc.), or activity designed to produce fraudulent traffic.”
