Click Discrimination, is a new phrase and concept that I have thought of. It is the result of running Adsense and seeing all other discussuions about it on here.

So what is "Click Discrimination" and what does it mean?

-This is a broad and very general meaning, but basically refers to Google's sometimes bad practices of discriminating against clicks and treating different clicks with different measures.

For example, clicks from countries which Google thinks will not get them any business are usually second class- i.e clicks from India etc.

"Click Discrimination" also refers to Google's inability to find a solution for the "I clicked my own ad." problem. By doing this, Google is discriminating against its own publishers and by not being able to click on ads.

"Click Discrimination" continues in many different forms which you can continue below.

We have seen racial and ethnic discrimination. Unfortunately it has got to an internet click too.

Having said all this, I love google for its adsense and not for its search engine, because Yahoo rules the search engine business.

What are you asking Google to do? Or not do?

Good question, because on purpose I don't make it clear so more people will discuss this.

In short, I want them to visit this forum more often and hear our concerns, that is if they don't already do.

That is the least I can ask them for now.

It's not clear to me what you're claiming is happening, but maybe advertisers simply bid less for ads to be run in India than in North America or Europe (not hard to believe).

Oh brother. If I had seen this first, I wouldn't have bothered responding at all.

Lets all leave unclear posts so that we all join in.

I'm I missing the plot?
