Auto-clicking bots will punish the people who run sites, not the people who run ads. They'll get shut down for fraudulent use.

Meanwhile, unless this has something like >50% adoption, ad networks won't even notice.

Edit: When I say "people who run ads", I mean the ad networks, ad suppliers, etc.

If you've got ads on your site, you're someone that runs ads... Not that I disagree with your point.
