Is this a morally wrong thing to think of doing?

I remember about a year ago, I was checking for possible places for link trades. I went a link list, clicked on a gallery and looked at the recips. Whichever one I clicked on took me to a site that uses a cj script. I saw a picture of great looking babe. I set out to find the content provider so I could buy some sets of this girl. However, when I clicked on the link to find the webmaster listing the gallery I was sent to another cj site. I never found the webmaster that submitted the link, nor did I find that content provider that has her sets.

It was then that I decided cj sites where not for me. Had I been a surfer, I would have been filtered to the exact thing I wanted. Instead, I was sent some place else. I did just what a surfer would have done, I closed the window and never looked back to either of the sites. Even as a webmaster I was ready to pull out my credit card.

I'm thinking, if the bot costs the surfer no money and he then clicks or types in the url for the show, your recieving quality filtered traffic. Your getting what you want, the surfer is getting what he wants. Everybodys a winner.

If cj scripts are not immoral or unethical, neither is the use of a bot for filtering traffic. At least in this case, the surfer will be sent to exactly what he clicked on.

If you not charging the surfer to talk to the bot, I say go for it!
