Comment on I'm gonna pay you $100 to fuck off

Advertisers on YouTube include some huge companies. They’d tear Alphabet a new anus if they were being short changed on their impressions and found out.

Yes, and I didn’t argue that specific point, but you missed the content in the hurry to downvote, friend. I’m not sure what inside connect you have, or skin in the game, but I’m not keen on fishing about in constipated arguments w/ anons, thanks. Have fun!

Unlike you, I haven’t downvoted you.

Not even this comment, that was also someone else:

You’re saying advertisers are paying for ads even if they’re not being shown to people. I’m going to have to disagree with that because literally if that came out, it would kick off Adpocalypse 2.0. A company like Apple, Disney or Amazon (some of the biggest ad spenders on YouTube apparently) will have slightly more power in court than you or me. Those are the customers that would be fucked over, not the viewers.
