I'm baffled Google is so uninterested in making a serious effort in combating this practice, in their own add-on store no less. The suggestions outlined by this developer seems like a good start, and are not too hard to enforce.
Google don't care. Hell they probably welcome it since a lot of the companies are probably using Google tools like Adsense anyway.
If they start replacing other ads not from Adsense with Google derived ads, so much the better for Google.
