Replying to @swodinsky and @daphnehk, @ericgoldman, @rtushnet

I'm not saying that there aren't marketers who want to keep their campaign tactics secret from that kind of review, but if they exist I've never met them. It's always been G&FB making the case for "advertiser privacy" which publishers mostly see as a running joke.
It's probably just a coincidence that every effort made to protect advertiser privacy happens to also make auditing the system or optimising it outside of the platform harder.
