To sum up a few points:
1. Thin content above-the-fold is not one of the best practice in exercising good user experience. Although Google agreed that placing ads above-the-fold as a means to monetize website, it encourages us to have concrete and relevant content for users to read in the first few lines on the page.
This algorithmic change does not affect sites who place ads above-the-fold to a normal degree, but affects sites that go much further to load the top of the page with ads to an excessive degree or that make it hard to find the actual original content on the page.
