The answer

Our established position is that it is permissible to promote advertisements and profit from them—whether Google ads or others—if the advertised matters are permissible, and the advertisement does not contain any forbidden elements according to , such as裸露 images or music. Otherwise, it would be prohibited. If it is not possible to control and filter the advertisements, with a strong presumption that forbidden advertisements will appear, then advertising and profiting from it are not permissible. As for the fact that most viewers of the channel's content are foreigners, this has no bearing on the ruling.
