Googleʻs Privacy Sandbox initiative

In January 2020, Google encouraged advertising technology companies to join or contact the IWABG as a way to participate in the company's Privacy Sandbox initiative.^[1]^[5]

Allegations of dominance by Google

Member organizations in the IWABG each get one vote, but can send any number of representatives to participate. As of October 2020^[update], there were 258 participants in the group, of which 33 were Google employees. In August 2020, a group of IWABG members wrote an open letter to the advisory board of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), expressing concern that "a disparity in organizational size" was preventing the W3C from fulfilling its purpose of equally representing all web stakeholders.^[6]
