Content network. :shudder:

OT I know, but it's definitely industry specific. I turned it on once by mistake for a day when setting up a campaign. Blew out about 5-6 times my daily spend. The campaign was only to show in a specific anglicized country, yet I got a ton of conversions from pacific rim countries (for something that's clearly only available and of interest in one country, from countries that shouldn't be seeing the ads). Not worth the hassle to complain about it, but all/most of the traffic was clearly fraudulent.

On the flip side I've got adsense on a few sites that don't do much traffic, but any traffic they do send from the competitive industry they're in should be top quality stuff. So someone's getting some good out of it :).
