Cause then everyone tells Google that their demographic is the one that shows ads that pay the best.

Though people are doing that with SEO anyway so it is a weird game.

I think maybe all ads would need to be the same value to fix a lot of the nonsense. But I don't know if that could ever work, especially with how seasonal ad revenue is.



If everyone that wants to scam Google just says they have whatever audience pays best, that should result in lots of slots for that audience. Somehow that should tank the price, right?

Then, ban pages that change their audience too often.
