The ads are Google's responsibility, not ours, and they don't fall under any of our policies on racy content. You can report particularly egregious ones in this thread

Also, women in lingerie, as much as I hate it, are not so racy to justify a report mostentimes.

The rule of thumb is that if it's just trying to sell lingerie, it's probably fine, but if it's Evony, then REPORT REPORT REPORT.

I realize that, but I wasn't sure if it was actually the ads or if I had a particularly dodgy piece of malware. I only see them from home, not work, thanks to our somewhat erratic adblocker. (Also, the irony of Google throwing up softcore porn ads after complaining about the distinct minority of adult-content discussion pages trips my funny bone.)

I honestly have no idea of what they're trying to sell because the entire banner is literally nothing more than 1-4 boob/butt shots in scanty undies. No text, nothing, and I'm obviously averse to clicking on them to find out what they are. My bet is yet another dating site.

Yeah, we've discussed that some time ago as well.

Just curious if I'm the only one getting semi-frequent ads on the left side, that are nothing but shots of women in lingerie? I don't know if it's a bit for yet another "(Insert Ethnicity Here) Brides" website or not, but given previous issues about NSFW stuff, it seems rather borderline to me.
