This article from AdAge discusses a meeting that took place on Wednesday between all of the heads of major digital advertising companies and the FBI, DoJ, and more. This meeting was to focus on the use of malware by criminals in the US and abroad. Together, the heads of the industry and the government are seeking to convene together in hopes that they will be able to find a solution to the hackers malware. Everyday, money is being stolen from consumers by malware that is input from criminals onto regular advertisements. This problem can be stopped, and this meeting hopefully will find some solutions.  This meeting is an excellent step in the direction for internet safety, not only for consumers, but for advertisers as well.
