It’s even worse than that.
It’s like he bought another kids lemonade stand while claiming the other kid was pissing in the jug to make it look like they had more.
Then pissing in the jug in full view of everyone else to make it look like he had more.
And then tried to sue passers by for not buying his piss filled lemonade.
Piss being bots and spam accounts, and the passers buy being advertisers who want actual engagement from users.
You didn't even need the last paragraph, it was already clear who was who or what was what. I wouldn't be surprised if this really happened, exactly how you wrote it.
He absolutely talked about the sites numbers being artificially high due to bots when he was buying it, even tried to use it to get out of the legal obligation to buy it.
We’ve also seen his gutting of the moderation system cause a huge influx of bots and bot interactions, not to mention other stuff that advertisers don’t want their ads to be next to.
Like he really has played him self and is having a temper tantrum at having to face the consequences of his own actions.
even tried to use it to get out of the legal obligation
Maybe he should have done something we call "due diligence" instead of explicitly signing a waiver for that responsibility.
Why is it always piss with these guys man. Why can’t they just enjoy being pissed on in peace in the privacy of their own homes instead of coming out and pissing over all and sundry
Also the lemonade is now being served from a toilet bowl full of Nazis.
Wait.
Does banning API access actually make viewership of ads worse because users/botters now have to parse webpages directly, and therefore load ads without viewing them?
At this point, it's pissade and not lemonade
Honestly, I thought this was some real story about his childhood
The real story is apartheid emerald mining so pissing in lemonade would be weird but a step up.
