Dead Lantern - Too Hot For Google?
So I got this in my e-mail inbox, I think it’s pretty funny. I don’t know how this stuff gets audited; Mat’s been making these “Women of Horror” posts for a long time and only now I get this notification. We’re not really earning much from the Google Ads so I may just scrap them - I certainly don’t want any of our writers to change their posts over some silly Google Ads rules.

Hello,
While reviewing your account, we noticed that you are currently displaying Google ads in a manner that is not compliant with our policies. For instance, we found violations of AdSense policies on pages such as http://www.deadlantern.com/2008/04/17/women-of-horror-65-natasha-henstridge/.
As stated in our program policies, AdSense publishers are not permitted to place Google ads on pages with adult or mature content.
Please make any necessary changes to your web pages in the next 3 business days. We also suggest that you take the time to review our program policies (https://www.google.com/adsense/policies) to ensure that all of your other pages are in compliance.
Once you update your site, we will automatically detect the changes and ad serving will not be affected. If you choose not to make the changes to your account within the next three days, your account will remain active but you will no longer be able to display ads on the site. Please note, however, that we may disable your account if further violations are found in the future.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
The Google AdSense Team
Issue ID# 450111

Even google can’t handle the awesomeness of Natasha Henstridge’s breasts!

There’s probably enough $ in the AdSense account to buy booze for Steve’s going away party, so maybe we’ll just do that
It was supposed to go for site hosting and operation costs, but, y’know… booze takes priority.

I’m surprised that’s the picture they got mad about. You’d posted more explicit pictures than that one.
