Adsense on illegal Boards

I know many people running adsense on illegal vbulletin / invision or other scripts , is this allowed? hm, .. I do not mean warez , unlicensed vbulletin i mean

 

What do you mean by "illegal"?

 

unlicensed/pirated vBulletin and Invision, right?

 

Warez or porno i guess? Just tell the webmaster or click the feedback link on the ads and tell google.

 

no , i meant unlicensed boards

 

I suppose it is not possible to run an unlicensed board since vB & IPB track every board they have licensed. I'm not sure about if G would help in this regard but those software owners definitely will.

 

hmm no it is possible

 

Here is Vbulletin's piracy page.

http://www.vbulletin.com/piracy.php

 

if it is not warez or porn but an illegal vbulletin licensce, I dont think google will have problems (there TOS has nothing about same as far as I have read)

 

How would google know that you are running adsense on cracked software??

 

i dun think so either. pirated vBulletin is Jelsoft's responsibilities and problem.
not google's
likewise, Jelsoft allows their software to be used on warez and porn site..
google have no right over them.

unless they have agreement between them, or a stated law.
otherwise.. nah

 

Why google will check if vBulletin or IPB is pirated thats not there problem.... they will go with thier own policy

 

Why be such a nosy-body? This has nothing to do with Adsense. If you're so offended by online piracy and want to save vbulletin their, what, obscene $300 (or something) licensing fee (which I'm sure they can't live without) then report them to vbulletin. Otherwise, just stick to your own business.

 

how did you fine out that it was illegal software.

 

Exactly...

And why would they give a fuck? It's not like they own IBP
