Lol this is actually an interesting turn of events. Google allows anyone to pay to get ads above the fold.

In this case, those “ads” are news articles, which actually (IMO) is good because it shows the issues with the current system that google has in place. Anyone can pay to get any content up there. Its already an issue due to being able to deliver malware, with this it shows another loophole that can be taken advantage of.

Also, Google is a bastard and needs yo be broken up.
