Comment on Racism is Poisoning Online Ad Delivery, Says Harvard Professorparent

Comments

Someone's bought up keywords and created ads for them. This is not Google being racist but some advertiser trying to narrow in on a particular demographic that they think will be profitable.

Sadly, as the researcher purchased that information, I think it's working.

The advertiser claims they're using a generic name list and applying all their templates uniformly across the board.

They're professional liars, so take it with a grain of salt.
