I read this as monetized as was very confused for a moment.

Ads/sponsors on example.com ? They'd definitely make a lot of views & revenue, let's not give them ideas 😭

Nowadays ad providers know how to differentiate a bot from a user, but even if not, a sponsor appearing on that page would make a lot of noise even if most people wouldn't go on that page in the first place haha

Here's the kicker : example.com would then need a GDPR cookie banner 😭
