Status code on advertiser blocked response #5

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
When a DSP queries the SSP whether an advertiser is in any publisher's block 
list, it would be convenient if a status code is returned if the advertiser is 
blocked.

The main reason for this is:

* The publisher may want to manually verify the advertiser and thus respond 
with a "pending verification" to indicate that the DSP should check again once 
the verification has taken place (by polling as described in the documentation.)

A second reason may be to indicate that the advertiser is permanently blocked 
by a publisher. A possible scenario when an advertiser is _not_ permanently 
blocked might be if all premium advertising space is bought by some company and 
competing brand advertisers may not be accepted on the site while this campaign 
is running.
