Websites get to control what ads are displayed. If a website integrates with Taboola they're explixitly opting in to these crap ads.

It doesn't work for adsense as they basically get a new account every day so you can't effectively block scams.

Google can't figure out rate-limiting and trust-leveling/ramp?

Sure they can; it just slows the money-pipe

Google could but I was responding to "the website that integrates ads can".

random question for you - do you still have your Dave Bull Great Wave and would you sell it?

What's YouTube's excuse?

They allow them, and people who have ad personalisation disabled are probably seeing more of them

Yes, but YT obviously doesn't use Taboola and it's still infested with scam ads.
