Google, Disney in Hot Water Over Child Influencer Videos

Engadget: Consumer watchdog groups have filed a complaint asking the FTC to stop the practice of aiming influencer videos at kids. Companies like Disney and DreamWorks (via Maker Studios and AwesomenessTV) are allegedly being “unfair and deceptive” by targeting these pseudo-ads at preteens. Google, meanwhile, purportedly “encourages and benefits” from distributing these videos on YouTube.
