Lush turns its back on Google ads in

As part of its 'big tech rebellion', cosmetics brand Lush is moving away from tech giants such as Meta in favor of smaller, more open-sourced communities. In order to interact with customers in more ethically sound digital spaces such as the metaverse, it is cutting the investment on ads from the search engine.

According to a research done by Lush, only half of respondents think that Amazon and Google are reliable sources of ethical information. A majority of consumers feel that big brands and corporations dominate technology and online culture, while more than half want big tech to have less control online.

The company said it believes in small tech energy and wants to have zero reliance on the rabbit hole that is trade mark buccaneering on Google in favour of interacting with its customers in more ethically sound digital scenarios. The statement said that they wanted to be there for the opening procession because they felt they were at a big tech rebellion.

There is a lack of goodwill among companies. Problems beyond the reach of a single business can be solved with the help of trademark and intellectual property.

In order to embrace the use of open-source technologies in everything that the company designs, builds and releases, Lush has implemented an open-source policy. It will only use technologies that are released on an OSI-approved license and will give back its research and code under an OSI approved license. We want to move away from Web2 to Web3 as quickly as possible.

To ensure consumer safety under a privacy-centered world, Lush will embrace ethical data usage by ensuring all data that is stored on its products or systems is secure and transparent about how it uses customer and staff data. Where possible, it will use hardware that is conflict-free and commodity hardware that has high output.

There are endless opportunities for Web3 and the future iteration of the internet to be the spaces the company wants them to be. Jack Constantine said that web3 is going to be as good as he makes it. Businesses can either be big players or sit back and let it happen. There's a huge discrepancy between how it's viewed in the media and how it's viewed by the people in it.

In 48 markets, Lush becomes anti-social.

In November of last year, the global brand decided to turn its back on social platforms until the platforms take action to provide a safer environment for users. The policy was rolled out across the 48 countries where the company is based.

The company wouldn't ask their customers to meet them down an alleyway, but some social media platforms are starting to feel like places no one should be encouraged to go. Something needs to be changed. We want platforms to introduce strong best practice guidelines, and we want international regulation to be passed into law, but we can't wait.

Retail and people accounts are included. As it promises to find new ways to connect and build better channels of communication elsewhere, Lush will not be completely off the grid online. It can still be found on a number of websites.
