    Every day Google confused their existing adsense publishers... Couple of week before adsense announced about withdrawal of adsense referral commisions... It is first announcement from Google about their publishers referral Commisions couple of week before...

    This is the second announcement from google about their referral polices... Today my friends received mail like this....

    Hello AdSense publisher,

    We are writing to give you an important follow-up to the changes we
    announced earlier this month to the referrals to AdSense program. Since
    announcing the changes, we've received a number of responses about the
    program being dependent on the location of the referring publisher
    rather than the referred user. After carefully considering this feedback,
    we have decided to modify our planned changes.
    Specifically, you will have the option to add a referral unit for
    AdSense within your account when you target any referral unit to Japan
    and/or any countries in North America and Latin America. To ensure payment
    for valid conversions, we recommend that you check the targeting
    settings on your current AdSense referral units.
    We'd also like to let you know about upcoming changes to the referrals
    programs for Google Pack and Firefox:

    Google Pack: Currently, you can earn up to $2 when a user downloads and
    runs Google Pack for the first time after being referred through your
    link or button. Starting the third week of February, each successful
    Pack referral will earn up to $1. This change will apply to all referrals
    for Google Pack and is independent of user location or publisher
    location.
    Firefox: We will also be reducing payments for Firefox referrals from
    China during the third week of February. This specific referral payment
    change will only affect installations from users in China. As with
    referrals to AdSense, this is independent of your location as a publisher.

    We understand that these changes may decrease revenue for some of you
    currently participating in these referrals programs. While it is our
    goal to help publishers earn as much as possible with the AdSense program,
    like any other referrals advertiser, we are constantly evaluating our
    campaigns to make them effective and sustainable.

    Again, thank you for your feedback and support of the referrals
    program.
    Sincerely,

    The Google AdSense Team​

    How can you complain about the policys set forth by Google? It is their publishers program so they make the rules, if you don't like it and going forward you should use another ad network, who will also have their own policys you won't agree with.
