you honestly think they make less than $1 in ad revenue per account per year where this calculation would make any sense?

  Do you think bot accounts won't make ad-revenue? A MAU is a MAU, whether its a bot or not.

    if it's identified as a bot then it won't. This change in policy seems to be a move away from that kind of revenue generation. If you're happy with MAU from bots then why bother to identify them?
