Oh no, now the Adsense team is drawing undue attention to some of the ads (disguised as "featured ads"). This will probably lead to the inevitable - a lifetime ban from accessing any Google service (even from Internet Cafe's or when in disguise).
Google confirmed with me that these ads are real and they are testing it. I guess a mod knows where to link to if they want to show this confirmation and pictures.
It is hypocritical, I agree - but should publishers complain if their CTR jumps due to Google placing images near our ads?
