The ads were served, right?
No, and that’s exactly the point that makes it a fraud (not stealing)
Was anyone really stealing? The ads were served, right? The checks for the ads were paid.

I hate ads but their designed to be shown to people and intentionally using bots to inflate ad views is very clearly fraud. Silicon valley had something similar with bot farms to fake user engagement to take in VC funding. You take money in exchange for some kinda engagement metric which you’re faking.

Yeah. I’m totally cool with ripping off advertising companies.
Fuck them in particular.
