On the flip side there are costs, bandwidth, content if you actually own any, dealing with people trying to take your site down or trying to sue you etc etc.

If done right I think its a good business, I do think its making things tougher for everyone but.. business is about making money for yourself.
Let me guess what you sell????

Your post is pure bull shit. Traffic does not bring money into the industry and that governs the success of an industry.

The problem is you can't own people and they are traffic, they decide to buy or not. The more who decide not to buy, because we listen to people moving them around and spend too much money moving them around, means the less money we all make.

AFTER 8 YEARS OF LISTENING TO THESE FOOLS AND TRAFFIC IS KING ANSWER ME THESE TWO QUESTIONS.

DO WE HAVE MORE TRAFFIC?

DO WE MAKE MORE OR LESS MONEY?

The answer is yes we have more traffic and we all make less money.

Yet some will never get it.
