Lintian tag: privacy-breach-google-adsense

Type: error

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

This package creates a privacy breach by using Google AdSense. Google
AdSense is a service run by Google that allows publishers of websites to
automatically serve advertisements. Unfortunately, it requires tracking
and breaching the privacy of web users.

This tag can also indicate the use of the related obsolete privacy
breaching software, Urchin WebAnalytics.

Note that using Google AdSense in a local copy of a page is a violation of
the Google AdSense terms of use. This violation renders this package not
distributable in Debian, and is thus a serious bug.

Please replace any scripts, images or other remote resources with
non-remote resources. It is preferable to replace them with text and links
but local copies of the remote resources are also acceptable as long as
they don't also make calls to remote services. Please ensure that the
remote resources are suitable for Debian main before making local copies
of them.
