Forced redirects now. What's next?

Back in January, our research team uncovered a threat actor, we labeled as FizzCore, who didn't rely on the typical forced redirect malvertising attack but implemented a new technique able to successfully evade ad quality reviews and abuse ad tech to net $1MM in 1 day.
