Updated
What is this trend?
Marketing measurement is moving into governance, where consent, traffic quality, and cross-screen attribution must be auditable before they can be used for optimization.
- Consent records now need to prove who agreed, to what, and when.
- Measurement is shifting from siloed channels to de-duplicated cross-screen currency.
- AI traffic and other non-human visits are weakening raw volume as a demand signal.
- Lead quality, attribution, and activation now depend on governance-ready data.
- Marketing ops must align legal, analytics, and media workflows to keep data usable.
