If one happens to unintentionally click an Ad on one's own hub or that of a hubber one is reading,
while moving the cursor over the hub, can it get your Adsense account banned?
If you did click has it affected your Adsense account?

I've done it accidentally a few times with no ill effects.
There seem to be a few ads which are near the right edge of the screen, that can be easily and accidentally activated by passing the cursor over them-- while going to scroll down the page.
