The marriage of media & detailed, digital, real-time data consummated long ago. But in 2020, the consumer & their government will begin pushing back on this cozy relationship as well as how the platforms, media & advertisers are using their assets. Things could get uncomfortable for everyone. Users are canceling & curtailing their social media use. CCPA, GDPR & cookie-killing browsers will curtail consumer trackability & heighten corporate accountability. And everyone's sensitivities are on edge in an election cycle where political campaigns use (and abuse) these same data, targeting, & media tools. At the 2020 edition of MediaPost's annual Forecast we argue that no responsible discussion of the evolving media & data terrain can exclude the issues of privacy, consumer & regulatory pushback & accountability. We will explore The state of media budgets in 2020 & beyond, & what may make plans change How the customer journey & media mindshare will impact spend How CCPA, GDPR & new browsers are impacting trackability & media spend Managing the oligopoly Media, platform & advertiser accountability in a year of feudal politics
