Google CEO on click fraud: 'let it happen' is perfect economic solution
According to Schmidt, Google’s auction-based pay-per-click advertising model is inherently self-correcting. Schmidt’s scenario for what would happen if Google did not police click fraud and it was “rampant”:

In fact, there is a perfect economic solution which is to let it happen.
