I thought it was about having some browser extension that clicks ads on sites without showing the ads to the user. Like a kind of “best of both worlds” for adblocking. So if it’s some blog they read often the ad revenue is probably more like $1 per year.
If you were to use Facebook they can make money off your views even without clicks, just not as much.
Agreed :)
