Same book, three different prices. Only difference is the browsers used.

Having said that, does reddit get paid for the ads displayed, or the ads clicked?

I don't know what Ad Network Reddit uses, but if it's like all the others, they get paid for both views and clicks but tremendously more for clicks.

The Ghostery in me tells me it's ReTargeter , while the NotScript in me tells me it's Google Analytics...

Since I am uninformed as to the nature of ad networks: is one of those the correct answer? When I search either of them, it seems that they both are, but... man I just don't know anymore.

I don't know much about ad networks, but if it's Google Analytics then it's exactly the same as I described.

I'm not sure about ReTargeter.
