Now that we're very aware of how foreign interference can Cat 3 moviesaffect elections, Google is rolling out transparency rules for the upcoming European Union parliamentary vote.
Google announced it will be requiring political ad buyers to verify themselves, the company announced in a blog post on Thursday.

The move by the tech giant mirrors a decision to demand verification ahead of the U.S. midterms. It required ad buyers to prove that they were a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, as required by law.
A Google spokesperson told Mashable it would require an EU ID for verification, and accounts that aren't verified will not be allowed to run ads.
Earlier this month, Facebook delayed its plans to make British political advertisers verify themselves after it was revealed ad buyers in the U.S. and UK were entering inaccurate details about who they were as part of its ad transparency program.
These unvetted, inaccurate details mean it was easy to mislead people about who paid for ads. For example, Vice News were able to run ads as ISIS, Mike Pence, and 100 U.S. senators on Facebook.
Up to 350 million voters are set to partake in the EU parliamentary vote next May.
