How come its against the rules to post ss of ctr and ecpm?

I just wanna know the reason because I don't quite understand why they have this rule. Thanks.

 

If we share our stats, everyone will see how low AdSense pay and nobody will participate in the program

 

Lol i had one click one day and my balance for the day was 38.70...

That was so awesome except it hasnt happened again for a whole year..

 

Ah. Ok. Is that the only reason?

 

there could be lot of reasons. google doesn't like to share the trade secret, which could be one. besides, if i post a screenshot with my earning and say my niche is immigration which gets me 27 cents a click, someone else might start a same site thinking s/he will get that same CTR and payout but might get lot less due to low qyality content and poor ad placement, then run to adsense support asking them why they are getting less and i'm getting more i could think of ton of reasons but don't have to think of anything. adsense says its against TOS and thats enough for me to know

 

maybe to keep the confidentality ! " Classified " LoL

 

To keep people from making all the same topics. this way they do not have thousands of sites with just a few topics.
