Sneaky Adsense in Free Wordpress theme
So... I downloaded what I thought was a pretty sweet magazine-style theme, for free, and was beginning to customize it. When I switched over to "view" to see how everything was looking I noticed a line of adsense ads in the top. I didn't recall uploading the adsense plugin with this one so I investigated some more and, after viewing the source, realized it was the designers pub #!
Is this standard practice? Offering a free theme and then sneakily including your adsense publisher code?
FYI to other newbs- make sure to check your code out thoroughly before publishing, esp. on "free" themes.
