I’m not sure I agree with that approach though.
I get that the goal is to cost the advertisers money without benefit, but I kinda feel like contributing to that system at all is just encouraging them to do it more.
It provides junk data as well, which a lot of sites and advertisers use to sell to others. If enough people do it, then it becomes less profitable to do so since it because apparent there’s a deliberate attempt to obsfucate.
That isn’t hostile enough, AdNauseam clicks them in the background.

What if not enough people do it though? If you don’t reach that threshold, aren’t you just inflating the amount of data they have to sell?
