Yeah, I've been seeing this ad all over the place and it's annoying. It's obvious it's a virus.

Every add is a virus in my book. It would be nice if there was an add that says not to click adds.

Re: Bad ads?

Why does Google need ads? It's already getting a ton of money from what it's doing now.

And Sansander, gratz on the 100 posts!

Yeah, well, you know that's just like, uh, your opinion, man.

Re: Bad ads?

TakoMan, if Google got rid of their ads, they would lose a lot of their money, plus it'd severely damage their reputation.
Also, businesses/websites around the world would fail, seeing as ads are usually a prime source of income.

-Google makes money from people clicking on ads, and people paying to advertise their website/business.
-Other businesses make money when users of their website click on an advert that's embedded on their website.
-Put these two things together, and imagine what'd happen if Google abolished their advertising system.

TL;DR - Getting rid of ads would only cause a negative result.
