Quite sad that Google adwords team failed to do a basic sanity check on the ads they were showing.
There has to be a basic template for profanity checks as well as banned keywords and looks like Google failed to add ‘terrorism’ in the list. (pic via sanyam, credit)
This is unbelievable! A certificate in terrorism?? What happened to “Do No Evil” ?
dude a certificate in terrorism does not teach you how to build a bomb or storm a hotel, it simply teaches you how to negotiate with terrorists and ways to combat terrorism…it is rather funny you thought it teaches you to be a terrorist
well.. the advertiser needs to be sensitive to what content goes out. The character limitation shouldn’t limit minds working on the copy!!!
Money for nothing and clicks for free – that’s the new G-mantra!
This is the downside of having google but you should know there is no way they can monitor each page and decide what is being fed to that page…..they rather make robots who fight terrorists..that would be easier
goes as FAIL-comment of the year.
Do you know that there are banned keywords and these ads are created on the fly using keyword insertions?
Can’t Understand a site like Google is not able to filter a word “Terrorism” ?
