how does hitbot affect affiliate piratebay and exoclick?
 

say I use a program to click exo-click ads 10000 times per hour from thousands of proxies with different user agent, what will happen to piratebay exoclick account?

I'd say that you are the first person to ever think of sending hit bot ttraffic to an ad network and you'll likely catch them completely unaware and change the industry forever with this brilliant any new idea you've got.

Yea, I would say they are prepared for all types of fraud. Traffic and credit card.

Even if you were to knock out TPB and exoclick, Somebody else would step up.

just curious to see how they sort the shit from good to pay correctly. :winkwink:

Well, as someone who gets constantly burned by this behavior in RON media buys, i don't think its funny. A person advertising on exoclick might not be aware ads are showing on piratebay, but you're wondering how to fuck that person over. The victim is not piratebay... the victim is the guy whos ad happened to show on piratebay. Not cool. The punchline is that you can't do anything online without leaving a trail and a footprint and its easy to identify those footprints and start blocking that traffic. All ad networks fight this daily. It's not a new idea. In 1997, 1998, 1999 affiliate programs were paying webmasters per each click sent, not revshare/pps... it was one of the very first types of fraud that people had to get on top of.

i doubt, anything will happen baucase they already have system in place to catch the hitbot traffic, even human clicking regularly,
so either your ip gets banned / they dont count those clicks and refund/compensate the advretiser.

in worst case scenario TBP account gets suspended , but i really doubt it. unless you are sending hits from private proxies and not scraped from internet , and there are many more things which can detect if click is real or hitbot.

if TBP gets booted from exo then there are other ad networks who will jump on and get TBP their way.

idk how many hits they get per day , imho your 1k or 10k hits will be less than 5% of overraall clicks for them imho.
