Invoking sandboxing without them is simple too. The problem is both direct and programmatic ads can't run viewability and verification in sandbox.

robleathern dansinker isaach nytimes At Salon we struggled w/ implementing Safeframes because we saw quality go up, hijacks go down, and speed go up, but every single exchange pushed back. They're right about this: it's a simple cause. So why isn't the billion dollar ad tech Lumascape that's responsible fixing it?
