Using Python 2.7, I got this warning after "from googleads import adwords":

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Crypto/Util/number.py:57: PowmInsecureWarning: Not using mpz_powm_sec.  You should rebuild using libgmp >= 5 to avoid timing attack vulnerability.
  _warn("Not using mpz_powm_sec.  You should rebuild using libgmp >= 5 to avoid timing attack vulnerability.", PowmInsecureWarning)

Hi Jay,

Thanks for bringing this to our notice. Since this is a Python specific issue, please create a new issue in the Python client library repository so that this issue can be addressed there.
