I wonder if the ads affect the bots. How does anyone figure out if something is worthwhile, if they haven't used it? They have heuristics, one of which is comfort and familiarity. That's why advertising exists: to get a brand in front of your face, so you recognize it. Maybe the bots end up with a similar heuristic as they crawl their sources. Perhaps the advertisers will be perfectly happy to pay, not for human eyeballs but for the crawlers. This is, of course, absurd. But since I find the capabilities of the bots opaque, why not absurdity.
