I've seen the FG one. I don't have a problem with it, I think they have as much right to spend their money on your clicks as anyone else. :)
It's PPC, but multiple clicks from the same machines could be identified as click-fraud and discounted. They're quite good at it*, I used to click ads I was actually interested in for a while when I first started using them and I got a firm slap on the wrist for it shortly afterwards. That's why when people complain about ads, I have to ask them to click through to find the target URL, so I can block it.
* Actually they don't have to be good at it to prevent this, since they have my browsing / AdSense login cookie and/or IP and can compare that to the cookie and/or IP I use to click ads. So it'd be more accurate and pedantic to say that I've heard they're good at it. :)
Makes sense for you as site owner, but what about the rest of us? How much is the charge per click? ;)
