Oz, I had someone contact me. Out of respect for his privacy I will not say who it was and He did not tell me which PPC company he was talking about but... he told me that he did business with one of them and showed them this thread and they cancelled their relationship with zango and stopped accepted traffic from them.
When I finish my site, follow along the lines of what you started here, when I get the " one stepped removed" people, I will put the burden on the PPC to do something about it. They have other customers as well and if enough people who buy ppc from them do like the person who contacted me did, and complain to the PPC search engines they buy traffic from, I believe most will listen.
Maybe this can be the first step to shaking out the bad companies and seperating the bad people from the good.
just a FYI, for those who like the throw the holier than thou comments at me. If you want to know my beliefs, it is 99% stealing. Stealing content, Stealing traffic, Stealing money. How many people have you paid for a service and they fucked you. Companies like ibill, who stole thousands from us, thats the shit I have it out for. I am not here to tell people how to advertise, if this is spam and that is not, that geo-targeting is missleading, etc... thats not what I am trying to do hre.
but if we can seperate at least the honest people from the theives in our industry, I think the honest people will accomplish a lot.
