There are also complaints of this on Twitter and other social networks. Again, I did not see any word from Google on this but here is a screen shot of just some of the complaint threads:

Again, I see probably over 1,000 complaints across hundreds of threads about ads not loading or appearing on their websites.

Update 2: Many are now reporting as of around 1pm EST that their ads are showing up again.

Update 3: Google sent us this statment, "​It ​was a minor bug impacting a very limited number of AdSense publishers. ​There's a​ fix ​- it's being rolled out currently."
