Umm, I don't understand. What's so shocking, that the advertiser didn't target by country/language properly?

the ????? just means windows doesn't understand the character set it is being asked to use. If i had seen the adverts, On linux, It would have possibly been an advert in japanese or arabic.

I don't know what would be shocking about it either lol.

I didn't click on the ad because i know that behind this, their are people who will lose money...

A japenese and an english ad on a french site, i was in france and i never met a person who speak japanese

furthermore, i'm from morocco, people here don't know adsense, so they may click on the ???????? and think it's a surprise, after that they will find some weird signs (what a surprise!) so the first thing they will do is to close the window

i like the google adsense program and i think their targeting is very good, but sometimes... you need to learn english, french and japanese to read their ads

excuse me for the language errors i do not speak english well

Ahhh, I see.

This happens occasionally, and often advertisers completely overlook country targeting. Many advertisers lose a fortune doing this; they should get PPC managers like us!
