MODERATORS
So an ad click costs advertisers ten times as much as an ad view/impression. Trick is that you need to view the landing page and follow at least 1-2 links on the server. If you really want to wreck reddit and raise this a few orders of magnitude higher. Go back to reddit and start clicking ads, follow links and close the page, or even next level, directly type the address of a major competitor to the ad generating company and go to this address next. Then delete your cookies and site data. If just 5% of us did this, it would wreck reddit completely over night.
