This decision follows objections from digital advertising companies and regulators to Google&#8217;s proposed alternative technologies.
Ad-tech players protested, accusing Google of attempting to strengthen its monopoly in the space and making it more difficult for advertisers to track their ads&#8217; performance.
Instead of eliminating cookies, Google will now prompt Chrome users to decide whether to enable or disable cookies.
This move will keep the internet free and support advertisers relying on cookies to track user data. Websites will continue to display consent boxes for cookies, maintaining the current user experience, CNBC <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/07/23/what-google-decision-to-keep-cookies-means-for-the-internet.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Google aims to address industry concerns and maintain advertising effectiveness by keeping cookies. However, regulators like the U.K.&#8217;s Information Commissioner&#8217;s Office expressed disappointment, emphasizing the need for better online privacy protections.
Google&#8217;s decision means that advertisers can continue using valuable data for targeted ads while users have more control over their cookie preferences. Despite this change, the push for greater online privacy remains strong.
Nearly 40.9% of websites worldwide use cookies to collect user data, CNBC cites W3Techs web technology research firm.

US Stocks Mixed; Perion Network Shares Plunge

Perion Network Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PERI#NASDAQ">PERI</a>) shares are trading lower after the company lowered <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/06/b39246901/perion-network-updates-q2-and-full-year-2024-guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">its second-quarter and FY24 financial guidance</a>.
Outlook: Perion cut its second-quarter revenue guidance&nbsp;to&nbsp;$106 million&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;$108 million (vs. consensus $120.035 million) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/05/38709832/perion-reports-strong-q1-growth-navigates-new-microsoft-bing-ad-pricing-successfully" rel="noreferrer noopener">from&nbsp;$118 million&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;$122 million</a>.
The company also slashed its second-quarter adjusted EBITDA&nbsp;outlook to $6.5 million &#8211; $7.5 million (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">from $10 million &#8211; $12&nbsp;million</a>).
Moreover, the company reduced the FY24 revenue forecast from&nbsp;$590 million &#8211;&nbsp;$610 million&nbsp;to&nbsp;$490 million&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;$510 million (vs. the consensus of&nbsp;$601.005 million) and adjusted EBITDA to $48 million &#8211; $52 million from $78 million – $82 million earlier.
The company reduced the guidance due to changes in Microsoft Corporation&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) Bing advertising pricing and a decline in revenue from standard video and display formats.
Apart from this, Perion experienced a recent decrease in revenue from standard video and display formats owing to market conditions and a shift towards higher premium formats, which promise advertisers greater ROI.
In recent days, Perion was notified by Microsoft Bing of its decision to exclude several publishers from its search distribution marketplace.
In addition to the changes in advertising pricing and mechanisms implemented by Microsoft Bing during the&nbsp;first quarter&nbsp;of 2024, search revenue from its agreement with Microsoft Bing is expected to represent less than&nbsp;5%&nbsp;of Perion&#8217;s revenue in the second half of 2024.
&#8220;The recent changes Microsoft Bing implemented to its Search distribution marketplace are unfortunate and significantly impacted our Search Advertising business,&#8221; commented Tal Jacobson,&#8221; Perion&#8217;s CEO.
&#8220;Perion remains committed to expanding our AI-driven Advertising Solutions business through product innovation and partnerships. Specifically, we are focused on expanding our growth engines into more countries, including CTV, Retail Media, and programmatic Digital out-of-home (DOOH). These represent a big opportunity for Perion due to their size and growth rate worldwide.&#8221;
Price Action: PERI shares are down 24.4% at $9.31 premarket at the last check Monday.
