    The solution to this is simple, have a human watch and approve the ad before it goes live. But google will never do this.

    content managers who have been tasked with monitoring content like that have horrible mental health problems though.

      Whenever I have heard stories like that it was human review of content that was already reported by users, which is the practice I am criticizing google for. Watching a curated list of abusive content will do that.

      What I am describing is human review of every ad on the platform. There are very few mental health issues when the bad content is the vast minority.
