Wait a second... maybe I don't understand what the libertarian phrase "condon fraud" means.
I've be LECTURED TO by libertarians that say that the way to fight polution is to let people polute all they want (remove all anti-polution laws) because they will see that it hurts everyone and market forces will eventually come up with a better way to make goods that does not pollute.
These people were not talking about carbon credits. They were saying that factories should be allowed to dump toxic waste in my town because that is better than the facism that is unavoidable by having an EPA.

Click-through fraud is just pollution on the internet.
