Great article on News.com.com.com.com or something

Industry standards would take the mystery of what is valid / not valid.

Good stuff...

Yeah, that is a good article. I joined Yahoo/Overture in 2002 and experienced this ...

... companies trying to deplete the ad budgets of rivals so they can buy the search keywords themselves and steal the business.

I contacted Overture who were looking the other way on click fraud imo. And I had to really press the issue with them. Competitors will click on your ads to deplete your daily budget causing your ad to disappear until you refurbish the ad budget. Pretty sinister thing to do. I never used Yahoo/Overture again because of this.
