And this is one of the <i>many</i> reasons why these ad networks need to see some movement towards better security, and that will happen as first-party integration becomes necessary (to overcome ad blocking). Not that I like the idea of ad-blocking becoming something that just won&#x27;t work, it will happen.

That&#x27;s why you should always put such external code within an iframe. And if the service doesn&#x27;t allow, better switch to the one which allows to put code within an iframe.
