I’m surprised anyone even takes Google seriously with the rules they try to enforce – for example the "specific uninstall instructions", even if it follows the OS standard procedure. (Tbh, I’d have just put a link to the Microsoft Knowledge Base and the Apple Support site there).

Or the fact that you have to show the EULA before the download – which is also not really helpful in any way.

These rules don’t really help either side (as people producing malicious ads can still do so, but people doing honest ads have to comply with rules that don’t help at all), but add more stress for both sides.

Links to separate Web sites?! Better brush up on your Google policies. That'll get you banned.


Okay, iframes then ;P
