Google has banned ads for virtual private network (VPN) products targeting Chinese users, ZDNet reported on Wednesday. From a report: The company cited “local legal restrictions” as the cause of the VPN ad ban. “It is currently Google Ads policy to disallow promoting VPN services in China, due to local legal restrictions,” Google said in an email today. The email was received and shared with ZDNet by VPNMentor, a website offering advice, tips, and reviews of VPN products. The company said Google prevented its employees from placing Google search ads for the Chinese version of its site.
