Participation
To participate, file reports with Google Adsense, Amazon Associates Program, and Criteo informing them that Gawker and its subsidiaries (which include Valleywag, Defamer, Kotaku, Gizmodo, Jezebel, Lifehacker, Deadspin, Screamer, The Concourse, io9, Sploid, Jalopnik, Truck Yeah!, and Cink) are violating the guidelines for their advertising programs. Do not copy and paste everything, but instead create a personalized letter in your own style. To avoid politicizing the issue, don't mention GamerGate, as it has no effect on Gawker's misconduct. Include whatever links you feel are most relevant, along with the specific guideline they violate. Use the contact links and evidence provided below. Have a look at some of the example emails in case you need help.
Update (2/10/2015)
Every ad on Gawker is not (is this supposed to be now?) powered solely by Google Adsense (Proof). As a result, it is highly recommended that you prioritize sending reports to Google Adsense.
