I won't even post what the person did to cause my site to have traffic in violation because there is pretty much nothing you can do about it once it happens and it requires no hacking of the site. I tried pulling my ads as soon as I noticed it but wasn't fast enough. As for google making barrels full of cash, they have to be. Something I read said that ShoeMoney was the 3rd highest earner on Adsense and he was pulling around 150,000 a month. Another site was making around a quarter of a million dollars a month. If Google can send you $3,000,000 a year for hosting their ads, I imagine they are keeping a nice chunk for themselves. I only earned a whopping twenty or so dollars in like 8 months.

When I was learning affiliate advertising I fell for some satellite company's lies. I signed up to hundreds of safe lists (my kids worked out before I did that everyone on the safelists was doing the same) and then I put some keywords into my template; I didn't know anything in those days. When I tried to appeal (I thought it was because I was artificially generating views because I was a member of BlogExplosion and BlogMad) the form only held 500 characters and went off with only half of my explanation. Google are $30 richer because of me. When I see the amount of adsense ads some people have on their blogs - google must be making a lot of money from cancelled accounts I was kicked off adsense too.
