> I do not see problems with fake ad clicks and have no sympathy for ad companies.

I am not shedding any tears for the ad companies, but I don't exactly expect or want a consumer device to be doing this in the background without the owner's knowledge.

Sure. And you'll quite literally never be able to get any meaningful reduction in this practice unless you attack it at the level of big, publically known companies; the warnings about these local dinky things I suppose are not harmful and help individuals a bit -- but I'm concerned they give the entirely false impression that the extremely similar stuff coming from the big boys is definitely a-ok.

Reduction in what practice? Are there big companies doing ad fraud?

I want big companies to stop spying on me, which is a completely different issue.
