Loophole For Using Google Adsense on Adult Sites

hahahahaha.... nooooooo..... just spidering for email addresses but okay... How unlucky of you to have the same IP address of well-known and corrupt spammers... gee, that's too bad. I'm sure you're totally innocent and just found your way here accidentally. Uh-huh.

So here, I will help you out. THIS is YOUR

IP address 64.27.3.253
Hostname set253.completest.com
ISP Hollywood Interactive, Inc.
Country United States United States

And this is one of many quotes discussing your IP address:

Over the last couple of weeks, I've noticed requests from quite a few IP addresses, all belonging to some company named Hollywood Interactive, Inc., that had all been blocked by Bad Behavior.

From the whois information, this looks like it could be a hosting service or ISP, but I couldn't find their homepage and they don't list any email addresses either. They use the nameservers from calpop.com (and their website offers dedicated servers). So this is either some reseller or something different altogether. In fact, I found a few posts that connect this company with P2P and torrent sites. I don't know anything about that stuff but I got the impression that they're serving ads and/or possibly acting as a front for the movie industry.

In any case, I don't see any reason why they should be spidering our sites so I decided to block their IP address range: 64.27.0.0 - 64.27.31.255 (or 64.27.0.0/19).

And FYI, I'm sitting right now pretty much in the exact location where Space Quest was born and that was my giant red flag that you are not who you say you are.... There's a great big trail of dots from this spot to where you are....

So play stupid and continue your little game of deceit....

I guess if you just put this emoticon on posts, it will just erase who and what you are... good thinkin'

I believe Kisa is correct. The owner(s) of AdultsOnlyList appear to be message board spammers as well.

Google isn't evil, they won't really blackball your site if you use Adsense on it. They'll send you a warning or suspend your account -- they're actually very fair.

But there's really no need to be drawn to adsense when there are so many other networks that will deliver per-click income that are adult related. See sig... but there are others, as well.

I agree - it doesnt make sense to get a perfectly good Google account suspended when there are other alternatives.

And they do NOT like adult.
