The ad spend itself is not the issue.

I am fine with spending $10,000 on ads (or whatever amount).

The issue is that when I know $5,000 of it was spent on clicks that had 0% chance to convert. For every fraudulent click I can block/prevent that is one more click that can be made by a real person who may actually make a purchase.
