And one of the questions I wanted to ask you, instead of in terms of of, you know, making the audits less more timely, is have you thought about maybe just doing complete audits of campaigns where there have been issues, as opposed to campaigns that don't that usually compliant and then just doing a quick overview or whatever, as opposed to doing a complete audit of every single campaign?
