Yes, i noticed something similiar some time ago and made the mistake to talk about it.
The google ads seem to depend on what we talk about here, so we should just avoid that word i guess.

Site owners are not responsible for the content advertised through Google Ads, nor is Google Ads. It simply uses keywords to find relevant ads, and if those ads happen to be cleverly disguised sites selling illegal products, Google Ads will still show it, because it can't differentiate, or the advertised site misleads the program.

AFAIK, unless you donate, the PR team can't control what ads are put up.

over at crymod, hacks are considered illegal and there is the possibility to prosecute these guys, its just never done cuz its ridiculous
however, i dont think its legal to advertise hacks

As said above PR staff have been alerted to it. Many of them will not be able to see due to the fact that they have donated to PR Community which in-turn removes those unneeded pictures. Hackers and hacking posts are really not welcomed here and i'm sure PR staff will take care of the issue as best as they can.

Great, now after this discussion i get even more of those ads again :/
I'd say just lock the thread and let the site administration handle it.
