You just asked a question. How about I don't answer the question but just tell an ai to grab some random stuff about spam and pretend I wrote that as my answer to your question.

Your site and your action are the worst form of parasite infesting the web.

You aren't even providing the tiny added value of a broker or legit curator or aggregator.

The material you "sell" all came from other people who you didn't pay. The way you derive income is by perpetuating the ad model that makes everyone's browsing experience horrible and inefficient and even dangerous thanks to malware delivered through ad networks.

I do not congratulate you. You have not earned a penny or generated a penny, you have merely figured out a way to collect a penny from thousands of people through a mechanism that is difficult to audit and prevent. No end user would agree to pay you what they are all paying you, if they actually understood the whole picture and had any practical way to choose.

How can you NOT consider this spam? Answer: the Upton Sinclair quote someone already posted. Although there is another version from Williams Jennings Bryan 40 years before that: "It is useless to argue with a man whose opinion is based upon a personal or pecuniary interest."
