If everyone can band together and generate N fake clicks for every 1 real click, And provide N wrong Captcha answers for every correct answer, Then we might just be able to send a message to advertisers and those "data anal-lysts" Question is: Will I be held liable for randomly clicking on things? What if I use a bot instead? (Maybe that's why the author eventually abandoned this project)

> Will I be held liable for randomly clicking on things? If you count this, some sites might think you're a bot or otherwise hint that they don't want to serve you. I've had Google make me solve captchas occasionally because I was using Ad Nauseam.

  If it's a buy now button or something it could be an issue. Also advertisers hate fake clicks on ads (they call it ad fraud) but they will blame the site owner so that's not really a problem.

    > advertisers hate fake clicks on ads The question was if it's illegal, not if it drives advertisers mad. The whole point is to drive them mad. :)
