These particular CPA ads. Should they be shut down?
Ok.
There is this "guy" that basically uses pretty much every type of psychological manipulation to abuse and force his victims into unwittingly purchasing a "product" under false pretenses.
Based on the longetivity of his ad campaign, the ad networks he is a part of, and the fact that he is still up and running, I'd estimate he is probably doing at least $100,000k/day if not more.
An example site is: "www matthewgetsgreen com" -- (this guy thinks its funny to show disgusting porno videos to any URLs linking from the warrior forum, so you'll need to cut & paste the URL and add periods in your web browser if you want to see an example site.).
Anyways... seems some people DID complain. (Someone had said their was a lawsuit originating from Texas against him). Apparently it is just one guy and his buddy/lawyer friend.
So now it seems on every new "site" he makes, he simply adds this disclaimer, in tiny, difficult to read text, and is still doing the exact same thing to deceive people:

What do you think should be done about this?
If he was honest and above board, that would be one thing -- but each site he puts out appears to be designed to "steal" from the consumer, merely because of things like this (i.e., the "only" reason he added in a disclaimer was because of a little bit of pressure).
