Most Astounding Violation of Adsense TOS

Cool trap. But I think it won't last long.

Kudos to that chuzpa. )

 

They probably will NOT ban him but just warn him first! I know several people who have done similar things like this before, including forcing IE users to install firefox through adsense's referall button / link to view their site (explorerdestroyer.com ??). Google just told them to remove it

 

We are indirectly promoting it by discussing it here at DP.

 

I'm wondering though if that specific Adsense tool is allowed to have text above it alluding to what it is?
It obviously doesn't generate random ads- just the one referral tool.

Am I missing something?
I originally thought it was a standard Adsense unit, now not so sure.

 

Very cheeky and clearly not worth it when it gets reported so quickly.

 

OH YEAH-
Forgot to mention one minor detail.
I found the page by clicking on a text somewhere stating we could watch a popular new movie online by following that link.

Obviously a bait and switch technique in itself.
That page will not get you anywhere near the original anchor text.

 

I think it won't be for more time. Definitely ban

 

I'm pretty sure it's a referral ad... and he only gets paid when the user installs firefox after clicking that button.
