07 Adsense can now exceed 3 per page
I received a few emails and notifications from AdSense publishers that Google seems to have dropped the ad limit per page policy.
In the beginning of Google the AdSense and the site owners who posted Google ads gave the fledging new search engine the boost it needed to go over the top. Then they put in restrictions to favor their ad metrics to optimize their own profits. Now, today with ad blockers and all the work being done by the anti-spam and anti-malvertising community, Google is suffering. Now they want you to run MORE ads.
Google's long time slogan "Do no harm" has fallen by the wayside in favor of stalking and optimizing even more revenue from every surfer -- and even MORE spam on the web.

08 Quotes: James A. Michener
"The master in the art of living makes little distinction between
his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body,
his information and his recreation, his love and his religion.
He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of
excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he
is working or playing. To him he's always doing both."
- James A. Michener
