Singapore Checks Who Pays for the Ad
Singapore's ad-verification reforms—requiring platforms to check who is paying for an ad, not just who appears in it—represent the correct control point against scam advertising, but one that arrives late.

The open question is whether scam spend will simply re-aim at jurisdictions where the buying desk still asks nothing.
