AdSense TOS question

[tim222]

This topic is discussed as part of someone else's "I got banned" thread, but I would like to start a new thread to specifically discuss a certain aspect of it. Yesterday I removed some ads from my site because I thought the ads were in violation of the TOS, but now I'm not so sure. I have also submitted this question to AdSense tech support, but I would like to hear others' opinion on this as well.

In Section 2 of the AdSense TOS, under "General" it says, "If You have elected to receive content or Site-based Ads, You further agree not to display on any Serviced Page any non-Google content-targeted advertisement(s)."

My question is in regards to the meaning of "non-Google content-targeted advertisement(s)."

Does that mean ads from another network (such as Yahoo YPN) that serves ads based on page content, or does that mean any ad at all that's related to the content on the page?

For example, if I have a site about widgets, and AdSense is serving content-targeted ads on a page, then I place a text ad for a widget manufacturer on that page... do I need to remove the AdSense ads?
