Looks suspicious, but sex sells, right? Maybe there was nothing against TOU. Maybe it was all just language and innuendo which are perfectly fine for Digg.
Nope.

I like the idea behind these ads and I guess with digg’s history they’re just fine tuning it at the moment. Will they stop those useless flash banner ads anytime in the future in favor of these? Everyone just adblocks them. I removed adblock to test these and I was getting pretty decent targeted ads.
