1. about my friend who was clicking on my Ads so none of that relevant information was included in the appeal form. The appeal was not successful. After I was informed of the new info from asking around, I sent in a second appeal form and have not received a reply back.
2. I am confused because it seems wrong that I or anyone else can potentially shut down people's AdSense accounts just by clicking on their ads. Why should I be punished for something that my dumb friend did? I never told him to click on my ads and he did that on his own because apparently he thought he was helping me out. I am a publisher who has followed and kept to the Terms and Conditions and it really sucks that one person's actions were able to ban me from AdSense forever.
3. I merely would like to know what my options are at this point. Copy For Click Here3. I also get the feeling that I would not be able to simply create another account. I read in the help forum that if Google recognizes that there is an association between your account and a disabled account that they will shut you down. If I am able to start a new YouTube channel with a new account I will but I don't want to if I pose the risk of being shut down a year from now.
4. Here If anyone finds this post and can offer me some answers to the statements I numbered I would be very grateful. Thank you so much
