Definitive evidence if you ask me.

Facebook recommendations and favourable engagement is worthwhile but Facebook CPC is a paper tiger at this point.

i have only spent a few $$$ on facebook and nothing converts its a total waste of time but why would they close there page you till get people looking from a facebook page?

ask yourself this, have you ever clicked a FB ad and would you ever click one? there your answer as to if you should or shouldn't advertising on FB.

thats returned FB users are behind SSL https (most of them) so you're not going to see the traditional IP address after the clickthru is set up. so i can see how someone who does not know how websites and ips work can claim bots but I wouldn't be surprised if FB us just processing the clicks in a way through there own IPs to monitor the stats and see handle the https protocols. they need to post screenshots of these stats

? SSL is not a proxy, it doesn't hide your IP, only the actual communication between you and the server. And how do you explain that the "browsers" have javascript disabled?

SSL can't hide your IP but on some browsers you won't be able to see from where did the visit got from (referring url)

I saw similar numbers bulk mailing their internal email system. It's a game with loose rules.
