    After going through this post http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=405469 i am a bit worried.

    Take for example someone i know flicks my adsense code from the source of my website. And places them on some web page, repeatedly clicks it. Am i in danger of getting my adsense account banned?

    If yes, how can i avoid this?

    ..Don't piss anyone off...

    Seriously though, I just read somewhere that Adsense may be implementing a feature that allows you to specify what domains are allowed to display your code.. Until then there is not a lot you can do..

    I am sure that Google can tell where the click are coming from, and would see that it is not under your own domain.

    I guess what you are saying could be applied to pretty much every affiliate program....

    I think the Google team would be smart enough to see that if you signed up with xyz.com and all the clicks were coming from abc.com then they shouldn't ban you.

    Because Google allows a publisher to put their adsense code on whatever site/domain they want, regardless of what domain you signed-up with, it's a bit more complicated than that...
