Are we, as Yahoo Users, pawns in the advertising click stockpiling game?

Update:

The Chinese Question have returned. Hits on a site count towards more advertising dollars a website can charge. I think this chinese invasion is a kind of internet money strategy.

Thanks for listening

    Of course.

    That's why I'll click on an ad or two now and then.

    It's how Y!A receives revenue.

    But I only see the "Maybe you would like to learn more about one of these?"

    at the bottom.

    I've taken care of the others, and made them go away.
