I don't understand your point. If an ad doesn't display, then the content owner doesn't get any money for it.

- perl4ever 7y agoIf it was always possible to detect whether an ad was seen, wouldn't it always be possible to block ad-blockers?
- dual_basis 7y agoMany sites do. It's clearly always possible to detect whether an ad was seen. Often, the content owners do not bother putting such measures in place, but the advertisers definitely do. (It's even easier from their perspective to check if the ad has been served or not, as many ad blockers prevent the ad from even downloading by sending all requests to that domain into a black hole and so the ad is never even requested from the server.)
