Google has released its annual ads safety report, which showed that Google removed 53% more ads this year and in the previous year and 67% increase from two years ago. Google removed over 5.2 billion ads, restricted over 4.3 billion ads and suspended over 6.7 million advertiser accounts in 2022.

Here is how it looks on a chart:
While Google removed more ads year after year, the restricted ads decreased, and the ads removed from pages decreased. Advertiser suspensions increased 20% but the year before, it increased 230%.
Also, with this news, Google Ads launched the transparency center with more on verification of advertisers:
The Ads Transparency Center is starting to roll out globally today. It’s a searchable hub of all Search, YouTube and Display ads served by verified advertisers. https://t.co/NYStnTXPTf
