conspiracy bullshit??? more like facts.
What happens is they keep running it on hope. Hoping some affiliate signs up and saves them, hoping the solution to growth just drops in the lap. So they wait, months pass by, and they wait... then money gets thin, they make cuts and they wait. Then finally one day the programs profits can't cover the expenses... and they close it down, that day/week - because they have no choice.

Correct, it's not conspiracy, it's just bad business practices backed with hope.
