Is this really a big deal for you on what websites are advertising. I mean I would maybe understand if a website would have a long term ad running or something that would suggest that they are supporting it or at least very aware of it, but for some short term ads that the stuff might not be able to track, I don't see a big problem. After all, The Pirate Bay has some pretty bad ads, but no one really cares.

Good point! Question: When will we start seeing ads for child porn? Or how about sales of illegal guns? Or maybe contract killing sites? By your reasoning, all mentioned are fair game. Besides, a wise man once said, "no one really cares."

I see a lot of people acting like it is objectively bad to say certain things, like we should all just gasp at any possibility of child pornography or whatever is taboo. I actually don't care. You can make child pornography legal, all I care, as long as no one gets physically hurt, it isn't a crime in my book.

The rest of things you mentioned are done by governments all the time, especially USA, so again, I am not that worried by ads for illegal stuff. It is just data to me, I don't care.

You are honestly pretty fucking sick in your mind if that's really how you reason things. Seriously? You think childs make the porn themselves?

Piratebay is even worse indeed, but hey, that's the piratebay.

CMC uses both adsense and Cointraffic.io, and i know that cointraffic.io used to allow ponzis aswell.

Also, laser.online, for anyone concerned, is a completely scam in my book. Not only do they buy advertising, i have a feeling they buy traffic aswell, to increase SEO, and look at their twitter audit,

https://www.twitteraudit.com/LaserOnlineLLC - 16% real.

If you check their whole website, as well as the WHOIS details, you will find out completely mismatch information about their owner details. They claim to be from United States in their website and registered as LASER ONLINE LLC, but if you check the WHOIS details, you will find out that they have provided the address from United Arab Emirates and company's ownership under DotOnline Inc. So, which should we believe? Yep, there is a registered company in the name of LASER ONLINE LLC within Delaware, but there is not any proof that company is linked with Laser.Online in any means. If they are from USA, they should be listed in SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) database to run an investment company, but you can't find out any information about LASER ONLINE LLC or Laser.Online within SEC database.

We are kinda going of the subject here so I wouldn't want to continue. But the actual creation of child pornography is a pretty hard subject to regulate, even when it is done by consent. But the actual people who watch it, sure, I don't care, doesn't hurt no one to watch.

Today I saw Coinmarketcap to advert a ponzi scheme site, promising 12% daily interest : https://laser.online/

Does such stuff make you loose faith and trust in sites who are advertising it?

Coinmarketcap is a free service that is making its cash most especially from those ads you are looking at. It is left to you to know what to click and what not to click.

Moreover, most of these sites make use of a service like googleads and co which usually push any ad to the page and there is nothing you or coinmarketcap can do about it as long as they need funds to keep being operational. If you don't like seeing them, just get an adblock.

This is way too much. People like @aleksej996 need a treatment. Just try to spend you time on something more useful without looking like a total d*ck.

I'm locking now this topics as it's getting out of context.
