Google ceases AdSense Referral in Germany

Posted by coldtobi | 24 Jan, 2008, 14:18
Logging in to Google, it shows, that Google stops referrals for AdSense. Ok, the only referral I am currently in is for the firefox browser, but I never promoted AdSense in the referral program, but in case you are doing, you probably want to stop advertising for AdSense. 
Unfortuantly noone can tell why this is, as the Learn More link also directs to a "Topic not found" page. 
NOTE 

At the end of January, we will no longer support referrals to the AdSense product in Germany. If you are displaying referral units directing visitors to use AdSense, you will need to update your pages. Learn more..

Anyway, I was already thinking about to completly stop serving ads for google. My blog has just a too small niche to "make money" with or even the hosting costs, as well on the other sides serving ads makes this blog "commercial" (no, you won't have to make profit to qualify). Which is actually bad because you have to concern about a lots more of laws in Germany. Anyway, this is a hobby blog, and adsense was an experiement which appearantly failed.

PS: Google actually ceases worldwide except America and Japan.  (See here, plus  a nice video some of how the publishers might think. )
