actually it can be done with "legal" advertisers... but most of them are offshore... it's a complete/complex network i must say, even i do not understand the goals there... nobody get paid or what? **

it's easy for anybody to alert googleAds, they just cut the ads and take legal actions to be refund if they ever paid them before... which is rare, or we would've heard of them. but most of these pirates sites are not financed because of the ads, they use them to spread the words... these sites are found because people search for them and google show the links, no matter the piracy or not -- google is not there to enforce any law.

i evaluated personally the number of copies spread on the net for my own releases over the last 5 years... less than 10% of the entire count of my own releases on vb.org and my own place... that means i loose 10% of incomes each day. will i have to invest 10% of my time to track them and make them pay or die?...

when you go at McDonalds, they loose 15% of all of what they cook, it goes directly in the trash, or is dropped on the floor because some kid hit the bucket. do they loose 15% of their time tracking kids to not loose these buckets?!... they prefer making more fries...

ok, we're not that big as McDonalds, but the more we do, the harder is for them to release and support all our work.

note: ** ads like the one you see on vbTeam... you will never be able to break their deals. these ads are offered by their host, which is offshore which is paid by the ads to display unsollicited ads, which is there only to make profit from hosting illegal websites... etc...
