From Google's TOS

A search using Google Services may produce search results ... that some people find objectionable, inappropriate, or offensive....You may not use the Google Services to sell a product or service, or to increase traffic to your Web site for commercial reasons, such as advertising sales.

[google.com...]

Looks to me like most of the people who find the new results inappropriate are the ones who have been using Google for purposes that it explicitly says are not permitted.

Makes a change for those of us using Google to find information who used to be flooded with inappropriate commercial sites.

The answer is obvious: use Google for what is allowed in Google, and do your selling elsewhere.
