For us WEBMASTERS here on Webmaster-world online advertising is THE only market.

There's a whole world out there that isn't dependent on or even involved online, much less advertising online, and as far as webmasters here, it's only a minor percentage who rely on advertising, Adsense in particular, as their revenue source. For regular businesses who pay to advertise their business online, it makes little difference what the ownership of the media "product" is as long as they get their proper ROI.

As far as June 1 is concerned, it's been "Mene, mene, tekel, Upharsim" for a long time. The people affected by June 1 should have seen the handwriting on the wall long ago and made preparations. Besides, that's off topic for the matter of concern here, the Adsense purge is a done deal.
