Remember that link list and TGP owners are not only from North America. If you redirect a russian LL owner that is reviewing your sites/galleries he will most likely blacklist you and if he's using a shared blacklist, then it was probably not worth it just to save 50 cents for that 1 gig of traffic.

2. What does everyone else do with this traffic?

Let them be. Once they go to a sponsor, then you can do what you want.

3. Is this just something I have to take as a write off as doing business?

It's a part of doing business over the Internet. Internet isn't just for people with a CC.
