Just because an ad network is automated doesn't mean you can serve malware through ads. Just because an ad network uses manual bidding doesn't mean it's malware free.

Specifically, this isn't about manual bidding, it's about manual review, and I trust the SO people to keep out likely malware candidates about as much as I trust any site. And yes, there are ad networks that haven't served Can't is a word I might reserve for text ads, but there are other automated networks that haven't at least. But I can't imagine its confusing why I might prefer manual review (malware policy: "Oh god, we missed it, never again") to automated distribution (malware policy: "Thanks for letting us know, we'll take that one piece of malware down in the next day or so.")
