Has anyone noticed a reduction in the clicks in the content network over the last couple of days, couple with lower rankings? My ranking has dropped about 1 average over many campaigns. This appears to be systemwide and not restricted to a single area. Things have been pretty steady most the year until now. Very unusual.

Could google have done another round of CONTENT quality score?

The QS updates happenning now regularly. If you got Search turned off, then turn it on and check your Search QS. If that has gone all POOR with high bids then your Content is also going to get affected. They cut the content impressions slowly before almost stopping.

IMO this is s**t way to work with an unstable QS algo which keeps changing every couple of months. Worse than Organic SERP changes.

It certainly does not promote any kind of stability to advertisers. This can be dangerous for people to advertise on google since they risk losing their entire business instantly. If they signed a lease for building or hired new employees and then are hit by this with no warning, it makes advertising next to impossible.
