ATS: Scientology Ad

Look at what i found guys:
Picture

An ad that passed under the radar or the proof ATS discreetly promote scientology?
(and makes money of it in the process)

For you to decide, i made my opinion already.

Those are google generated mini ads, they are not endorsed by ATS.

The topic of Scientology comes up often on ATS, the word triggers the automated ads.

Oh no

They must have locked onto our debate S-dog!!!!

Now they probably think Im one of them (considering I had to support scientology)

Im still feeling ill from having to do that

I suppose according to that logic we are also discretely supporting and taking payoffs from Motorola and Microsoft Bing as those are the two ads I am currently seeing.

Without sounding rude, it would probably be wise to do some research into how websites work with ad networks before making odd allegations like that.

Does ATS make money off the ads you see? Of course! So what? It's a free site to us, but they have large operating costs that need to be paid somehow. Letting Google target ads to people that are showing an interest in a certain subject seems like a perfectly reasonable way to pay for the site.

No worries mate.
