Jon,
Literally all your points have been discussed on Seeking Alpha comments and Yahoo BB. I have the same concerns you outlined as well.
Speculating on these matters is just that, something of which we're all guilty. We'll have to wait until earnings and the conference call to learn more, unless statements clarifying the disastrous situation are released prior to then.
One of my big concerns is new language in the 20-F. They talk about risks associated with "Made for Advertising" sites (rubbish clickbait sites). This is very disconcerting for me. Go to SEC filing 20-F, do a search for "Made for Advertising", and read that section. They mention risk of reputational damage and refund demands. Not good.
Oddly enough, when PERI won the supply partner of the year award for MSFT in 2022, they did so for placing good, clean ads, not rubbish. Go figure.
