Its actually the opposite, by natural instinct. Its all about finding what you want - irrespective of whether it is from the shop owner or offers or ads. If you don't find what you want. There is NO reason to sympathize whatsoever.

For blogs and content site, let them have a donate button which says on the face to show gratitude than promoting click fraud this way.

In the ideal case,

- If you have a decent site (read business not arbitrage or lead gen sites), you must be making more money from serving the customer yourself than letting him/her navigate away from your site.

- Ads are meant to only complete the user experience. Like say I am searching for a "black leather high heel sandal" and the site doesn't have the content relevant, their last attempt to serve the customer should be to show relevant ads as someone out there might serve me.

- Ads are about monetizing a visit.

All adnetworks are aggressively behind click fraud for the very same reason.

However its a bad bad world! :) So to survive most are forced to shed away virtues and values.
