"Well, that's what you get for being in the click based ads game really."
Do you find something particularly sinister or unethical about click-based ads (more so than any advertising)?
Oh no, not at all. I realize that could have come across as malignant, but it was just supposed to be a neutral assessment.
I do freelance dev work for some guys that run ads; it's just another business to me.
I don't.
But this is analogous to TV advertisers complaining about TiVO and the ability to skip commercials. Can't stop it!
