Hollywood already does this, when your movie gets greenlit you go into debt with the other arm of the company for marketing.
In this case, we would require it to be a separate company altogether. Could there still be collusion? Sure, but it would introduce a misalignment of profit motives, which would introduce competition between the platform and the advertising service.
