what's the deal with google?

[socialight]

Hey guys, been lurking around for a bit... met a lot of you guys in the Boston Sumit... just quick question does anybody know wtf is up with google now that's not accepting ringtone ads?

Every ad I submit gets denied all of a sudden under the reason that it's "mobile content".

Any ideas how to get past it and why this all of a sudden? (it was working fine two weeks ago).

Whoa there's only a few ads from non-affiliates showing for "ringtones"

Some tricky affiliates can get past the google block on ringtones. Ringtone offers are basically scams as they automatically charge the user a fee that they might not be aware of. Usually it says you get horoscopes, but in the fine print that nobody sees it says it will charge $9.99 a month. Google has put a stop to scammy offers. I guess it is a way of them covering their ass in court. Read the google adwords terms, it explains it in there.
