26. That was a different type of ad.
That was a graphical banner ad: an ad that had been specifically set up by the advertising company. They had paid for, and were running, that particular ad as part of a rotation. All that removing it would take is an email saying "hey, pull that, please." In that case, they'd simply remove that particular ad from their rotation and go about.

These are a totally different type of ad, in which text ads from a pool of hundreds of thousands are automatically chosen by a remote server--and generated on that server for each viewer. If you want to complain, you'll have to complain to Google to pull that ad from its entire advertising network. There is literally no way to block it from appearing here. They are completely different types of ads.
