I'm just pointing out that Google has addressed this "problem" of duplicate clicks - in some way. Which is entirely different than not doing anything as if there is no problem. Kissie you are trying to make a big deal out of an irrelevant issue, just like Barrons tried to do with their opinion piece, whose underlying message was "Google's great quarter doesn't count". Its really BS.

Huh? what are you dribbling? how freaking hard is to extend the concept to address blocks, check address history on click variety, ad sources, percent of ads on a page etc etc... it is not freaking hard to identify bot net patterns. bot nets are code written by humans. you analyze the code. No one is denying click fraud. If it is large scale (ie a large percent of clicks), it will be identified. most large goog advertisers will also have the ability to independently identify the extent of google click fraud/effectiveness on their websites by analyzing their logs. and they keep coming back. I dont believe you are honest, so I dont plan to "rebut" anymore pearls of insight you throw in on this subject.
