New Type of Google Ads: Pay Per Action - good or bad for adsense earnings?

I don't see how. There is nothing original or Google-like about hyperlinks. I'm sure you won't be able to run both Google text links and Kontera links, but there's no way they can claim that hyperlinks are a violation of TOS. Hyperlinks are just way to prevelant long before Goog came along.

Well I'm sure Google will haven't something to say about the issue - and I think they personally feel that running other "hyperlink ads" may be in breach of their TOS. We are not talking about simple links here that Kontera supply - we are talking about "in content contextual hyperlink ads".

That said you might say that then it will also be a breach of Google TOS to have text affiliate links in content - because I mean they even have a great likeness to Google's ads than Kontera's ads because affiliates links are based on the same PPA system. Either way I will be very interested to see how Google interprets all of this.
