It's just a click. For it to matter so much whether I am clicking this link or that link with the right intent, that all this supposed meaning and morality hangs in the balance, that it could make all this difference, it all seems so absurd. Almost makes me want to disable ABP, Allow Scripts Globally (dangerous), shut my eyes, and just start clicking. None of it really matters.

Eh, I think I'm done with the Internet for today. Might run afoul the click police.

It makes more of a difference to an advertiser than your vote makes in the presidential elections. Do you vote?

Also, keep in mind that the largest part of the money you just "donated" goes to Google and not the web publisher.
