You might be technically right but Google is incentivized to charge you. Also, it's probably really hard (technically) to resolve your real identity.

- SXX 7y agoIt is super simple for Google to resolve real identify of most of users and fraudsters. At least there absolutely no justification for Google not to detect fraud in cases where OP could do it using his own statistics. Your browser by default leak your OS version (Chinese using older versions very often), locale (of course there is tons of users with Thai or Turkish locale outside of their home country, right?), fonts, etc, etc. Basically everything is can be used and actually actively used for fingerprinting. In cases of some proxies WebRTC can just leak your real IP. I wont even start on the fact that Google controls web browser that is used by 50% internet users and it's sent a lot of data to the mothership. And yeah if you try to mess with Google itself by let's say mass registering accounts you'll understand how good they are at protecting their own infrastructure and money. At the same time why should they care about someone else lost money? So they don try to fix it.
