Many ads on MacRumors are targeted automatically by Google. You are seeing Prop 8 ads or Political ads because someone told Google "I want to run Prop 8/Poltical ads for California/U.S. residents on tech sites".

We don't like political ads (either side) and will try to block them, and it's usually not a big problem since they usually don't target Mac sites. With the pending election, it's obviously harder to avoid them these days.

I've added some to the block list, but I don't see all the ads since I don't live in California so can't be sure I "got them".

They'll be gone by Tuesday night regardless.
