  Shame on you WordPress for planting video ads in our blog posts — without doing anything more than inserting a pay-for No Ads option in your sign-up form. Even worse, this isn’t just for new subscribers, it’s retroactive. Our hunt has begun to host our blog out of WordPress.com; and we’re spreading the word FAST.

  @sanoma2004
  Spredding the word fast would be years overdue. WordPress.com has been running advertising on our free hosted blogs since 2006. Many bloggers do not know this because despite the fact they ticked the box required to get a free blog, they did not read the ToS. Many also do not read features page, or advertising entry in the support documents after registering their username and blog(s). Also note that as the ads do not display to us when we are logged in, and as many use browsers with ad blockers when logged out, they may not realize they are there at all. The only way to get rid of all advertising on our free hosted WordPress.com blogs is to purchase an annually renewable No-Ads upgrade.

  As for the suspended blog:
  https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/my-blog-has-been-suspended-3?replies=2#post-945966

  The suspension notice / Banner has a “click here to contact us” you need to contact the Terms of Service people with that link to ask them – that link should always work.

  You can also contact the staff here if the above link is not available: http://en.support.wordpress.com/suspended-blogs/ Should have a contact form at the bottom that should work all the time for everyone

  WordPress.COM policy is not to discuss TOS violations in the Forum and us unpaid volunteer helpers can’t return your site anyway. You might also review the following links for more information on what might have happened. Mistakes are sometimes made but you need to talk with the TOS people.

  You might also review the TOS before you get too far along:
