A tor exit node will not be able to produce a dime this way because its always the same IP that is watching/clicking ads (his own ads) so the clicks will not count or the account will get banned in all adsense services. Still, changing links to amazon, ebay and other similar websites by adding the referral/tag of the tor exit node owner could produce income, regardless the IP. But who browse the internet for shopping via tor? _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
