That is the intention. I’ve been to a few sessions like this. While they are intended for the best interest of quality search results and protecting against unsavory techniques, there often are ‘black hatters’ in the audience that do take notes. (They constitute about 5-15% of the audience).
CAC is designed to be an open forum for ideas. Anything anyone has to say, good or bad, we want to hear it. We like to hear both sides of the argument. We have found most affiliates, gaming operators and marketing execs that attend the event have an open mind. And it makes for an extremely informative event, which usually results in increased revenue for the affiliate.
One point Dominique has made at previous events is that those that practice unethical marketing techniques DO make money…..but not for the long run. Eventually, their own techniques work against them and the market they try to create or take advantange of eats them up.
