Adsense Title Only Souce or Click Revenue

Well...I'm not sure if this has been discussed anywhere else on the net nor do I know if the issue is currently being resolved but if you haven't heard, Google is only allowing revenue through clicks to be made only if the user clicks on the title of the ad: Google AdSense: When A Click No Longer Counts As A Click

They say that it will reduce the amount of money being made from accidental clicks but I have a great idea, one that if google hasn't figured out or implemented, my only choice is to believe that google is trying to well, scam us (adsense publishers)...The implementation I'm speaking of is making the text part of the ad and the bottom URL part of the ad NON-CLICKABLE.

If the user cannot click on the text or bottom URL of the ad then there can be no accidental clicks! And where or on what website do you really ever find that a user can click on a whole paragraph of text? Not on any websites I've worked with!

Does anyone agree with me or am I just being too picky?

...well what do we do? make this thread huge and hopefully someone from the G finds it and realizes that we're keen to this strange discrepancy?

Has anyone found their revenues falling?

now I'm even more shocked that people actually visit this thread and don't even bump it - at the very least so that hopefully something get's done...

do you want your revenues to change? do you want people to click on the text part of your google ads and not get any revenue?

Brutal!
