Please i want to know if Google is currently facing any kind of difficulties issuing payments to their Adsense publishers.

I heard it may be because they had to focus on repairing the damaged undersea internet cables by sharks in China and therefore allocated more budget expenditure to it.

How true is this?

      Do you really think that Google could get bankrupt?

    Hello,

    I heard it may be because they had to focus on repairing the damaged undersea internet cables by sharks in China and therefore allocated more budget expenditure to it.
    Mega shark VS Google!

    I'm quite skeptical. They have so much money! They buy companies with millions and billions of dollars.

    I think it was a Megaladon, but I'm not sure...

    They paid me in both of my accounts on time as usual, so no issues here

    TOTALLY TRUE!

    So much money is being spent on sharks in China that Google's scheme to shift its US AdSense income through its Ireland subsidiary to save on taxes is in serious jeopardy.

    Did you read about Google abandoning its "barges"? True. Too expensive because of the sharks.

    Did you read about Google unable to buy Twitch so Amazon grabbed it earlier this week? True. Too expensive because of the sharks.

    When has the last time Google could afford to update PageRank? I read it was nine months ago! Even Matt Cutts said Google had to pull engineers off the PageRank update team.

    On July 22nd Google's stock was $596. Today dropping to $571. True. It's because of the sharks.

    That's a big drop in price. The company has lost billions in value. Combine that with the shark costs and company is teetering.

    If you get paid by AdSense this month consider yourself very lucky. I got paid but am very worried about next month because of the sharks.

          Much of the time I'm just here for the entertainment value.

          In the 1966 Batman move with Adam West there is a scene where Batman and Robin save themselves with shark repellent. Maybe Google can find some of that and spray it on their cables.

    Maybe that's why a lot of people are seeing much lower CPM's...myself included, so they dont have to pay out as much.

    Google was one of the most powerful companies in the world but even they couldn't survive the cable hungry shark attack of 2014.

      You made me laugh off my mind with that statement. Yes. It seems sharks in China are the most "cable hungry" ones in the world.

    Surely Google owns a school of robotic sharks to battle the real Chinese sharks. I got bit by one of the Google sharks when I was surfing in the Mississippi river, but nobody will believe me.

    I "get" that Google could have problems with "sharks". It's the under water part that I don't quite grok.

    Shhh. It's the plot for Sharknado 3. Funded by Google, which really explains
    the drop in payments.
