First of all, I've never created any fake article or news landing pages, and I've never promoted any of the offers commonly associated them.

I'm curious as to why the websites that display advertisements which link to these types of landers are not being targeted by the FTC?

For example...one site which I regularly visit that happens to be ranked well within in the top 100 according to Alexa, has been displaying ads for as long as I can remember, that take you to fake article/news sites with work-at-home moms, dudes getting ripped from some supplement, acai shit, etc.

I don't want to "out" anyone's traffic sources (although I doubt I'd be outing anything), but what gives? If it weren't for high-traffic sites allowing these types of ads, there wouldn't be a problem.
 


I'm assuming your teachers never taught you supply and demand because they knew your brain would explode, so I won't either.

your analogies don't really compare...and i'm not sure how you think supply and demand relates to my question which is regarding accountability of the different entities involved in the false advertisement issues.

what i'm saying is: offer owners are getting busted, networks are getting busted, affiliates are getting busted -- what about display networks and the sites which actually display the ads?
 
The reason the FTC hasn't gotten me yet is that I put biz opp banners on my acai farticles and acai banners on my biz opp farticles. Legal loophole.

The same reason billboard owners didnt get sued along with big tobacco for smoking being unhealthy or tv doesn't get sued when the medicine they advertise kills someone because its tainted from China.

Why did it used to be legal to smoke in classrooms?
Why did it used to be legal to drink and drive?
Why did it used to be legal to own slaves?

Blah, Blah, Blah...on and on...

How do you know the FTC isn't targeting these ad agencies yet?

Government moves slow... give it time.

The ad agency will be coming down too but they usually have more resources and have lawyers. The FTC knows this so they gotta get it right by going after the little guppies first.
