No, the reason for all this seems to be pretty clear and determined already from the emails we've received from Google - they're just integrating the billing system with that of Adsense. It appears to be standard cost-cutting procedure, not any ulterior reason. This is normal after acquisitions like that of Performics.

I'm royally miffed, but I don't think there are any conspiracies here - bureaucracy would probably be more accurate a descriptor. Nothing in the communications we've received indicates our affiliate account is specifically being targeted. It just so happens that our Adsense account was previously disabled, and there currently is no provision in the system for these situations.

A simple fix would be to reconsider disabled Adsense account appeals for GAN users. Or reopen their Adsense accounts with the Adsense feature disabled just so they can receive GAN payments. Either way would work. Unfortunately so far we haven't heard anything back from GAN except the aforementioned note to the effect that our account would be disabled 10/31/09.
