1) Advertisers - plural? What other advertisers is Google referencing?
In this context, 'advertisers' means all the other meaningfully similar ad options that the author could choose from.
2) This wording: "The team has reviewed it but unfortunately your site isn’t ready to show ads at this time." is Google's clear and blatant refusal to extend their ad ~monopoly to his web page. A refusal that gets satisfied only after he loads his site up with useless, time wasting crap.
I'll grant the author did have a choice. The author could be denied access to Google's ad monopoly or he could crap up his web page.
- bitnasty 3y agoAdvertisers are the ones paying to have their ads shown. Google is not an advertiser in this context.
- WarOnPrivacy 3y agoYou are correct. And your observation is useful. It helps clarify that Google is lying - by pretending advertisers actively desire webpages that are unreadably overloaded with pap.
