Smosh? They are still around? The most unfunny garbage I have ever seen. They used to push there videos with soft that would drop the cookies, so multiple browsers on several computers could get them up to a million fake viewings in an hour or so. I would track them.
I think youtube needs to get better at stopping e scammers, or they are going to find that they are paying revenue based on false viewings.

I had been led to believe that a lot of Youtube performers make most of their money by surreptitiously promoting products in their videos. If you ever see a Youtube performer say they like a particular product or have been using a particular product in one of their videos, then they have probably been paid a couple of thousand dollars to say so.

Sounds like at least some creators are getting a chance to make a few bucks............so maybe that's good
Honestly I am getting pretty sick & tired of being spied upon where ever travel on the web & other racking in the ca$h based on spying on everyone, theses idiots are killing their golden gooses
And I just hate being spied on & recorded by every damned site I might visit & then the browsers that be SPEW their recommendations
WE ALL SHUD BE BEING PAID INSTEAD OF BEING USED!!!!

Hey, @GW; just don't participate. It's not that difficult to quit a bad habit, and all those so-called 'sharing' sites are nothing but online addictions that distract you from participating in real life.

Its a tad more complex than that & I don't do a whole lot of the crap on the net, keep it pretty simple but its CLEAR as soon as someone is online doing anything BIG DATA is sucking you dry & selling your A$$ for $$$$
