    Probably to hide the Ads by Google. Definite TOS/Policies violation here.

    I can't see the whole add so i think it might violate this term

    "Elements on a page must not obscure any portion of the ads."

    It looks more like they don't know how to make a webpage work, not them trying to deceive anyone.

    I think they know what they are doing. I think it would be aginst TOS because it gives the impression that they are site content more so than ads.

    maybe correct, however I don't think intent matters when it comes to the rules

    "Elements on a page must not obscure any portion of the ads."

    You'd have to work at doing what they did, I don't believe it was an 'accident of coding'

    Actually it doesn't take much work. Gets so you can't swing a bag of doorknobs without smacking a site in violation anymore.

    It would definitely be against TOS if the slide covered the "ads by google"..

    No doubt the site must be the trash nation headquarters, really bad design and against Google's TOS indeed.

    Someone really went overboard in coding that. They didn't pick up on the fact that nobody is using stuff trailing behind the cursor any more... Just because you can, doesn't mean you should... Actually, the whole design reminds me of the 1990's.
