Just went to check on Adsense and it had this notice:
Sites with ads.txt issues
error_outline
Publisher ID missing from ads.txt files
You need to add your publisher ID to the following ads.txt files:
letterpile.com/ads.txt
This will prevent a potentially severe impact on your earnings. Copy and paste the following code snippet into each ads.txt file:
****left blank for privacy but would normally have code here***
If you've already done this, please allow our systems up to 24 hours to reflect the changes.
Hope HP is fixing it?

It's not only Letterpile, because the notice concerns all niche sites.

I've noticed that advertisement or links are being placed in between the lines of a poem or haiku verse. This is very distracting to the reader and disrespectful to the creative writer. Has anyone else had concerns about this?
