I'm an optimistic guy, but the US Gov is not lauded for its ability to legislate the internet community effectively. Guess we’ll have to see how the FTC will react.

Here's my understanding: 1)We (to date) have not been offered anything by any company that we have written an article about. 2) The article is written and posted before we can receive any compensation from AdSense. Furthermore, AdSense randomly generates the ads for the pages; so, there's no guarantee what ad a person will see. Since we receive no compensation and no offer of compensation before the posting of the article, we do not have conflict of interest. I may be wrong, but that is my understanding.
