The Global Disinformation Index Expands To Mobile Apps And Connected TVs

In partnership with Jounce Media, GDI launches industry’s first cross-screen disinformation management solution.

Global Disinformation Index (GDI) has partnered with Jounce Media to launch the industry’s first solution to protect brands from funding disinformation across web, mobile app, and connected TV inventory.

As programmatic buyers expand their campaigns across devices and rapidly increase investments in connected TV, disinformation publishers find new vectors to monetize their content. Research from Jounce Media indicates that more than half of ad-supported disinformation trades through mobile app and CTV auctions. A web-only lens to disinformation management is insufficient in today’s programmatic supply chain.

Through a comprehensive mapping of every app distributed by Apple, Google, Roku, Amazon, Samsung, LG, Vizio, Xbox, and Playstation, Jounce Media can identify the full portfolio of apps developed by any publisher. With this mapping, GDI expands its disinformation exclusion list to the full breadth of web, mobile app, and CTV inventory that is available to programmatic buyers.

The solution is available immediately and is compatible with every programmatic buying system. Current GDI customers should contact info@disinformationindex.org to secure access to cross-screen exclusion lists.
