A clever, and decidedly evil, move on Google's part.

Showing ads on content produced by creators who aren't a part of the partners program, means they get to pocket the full ad revenue.

There is already not enough ad money to go around, hence the Adpocalypse a few years back.

Now Google is skimming even more of the cream.

This is a company which deserves to lose, and I, for one, can't wait.
