How to protect Google Adsense from being clicked by competitors?

Question

Monetization

Hello!
Let's say I'm ranked top for several queries and I have adsense ad units. Some Vasya envied me and decided to specifically click on my advertisement so that I would get a ban and not earn. He will do a bunch of tasks at some seosprint and naturally I will have problems.
Please tell me:
How to protect yourself from such people?
Does Google have anything against this?
The same question applies to Youtube.

Answer 1

Defend - nothing.
Google has only "breadcrumbs" for tracking: in cookies, in the Chrome browser, in Android mobiles and weighted average statistics against the background of similar clicks with equal conditions: country, date, region, language, subject, etc.
Accordingly, clicks should not affect your reputation, but most likely will significantly affect your income: it will be canceled during the click period if the number of clicks significantly exceeds the average statistics in this region and topic.
If the one who clicks is recognized as a different Google user with a high degree of probability, then your income will fall much less, because. Google will be able to distinguish real clicks from fictitious ones.
And... the most interesting and most important thing: if other=you => You get a permanent ban from Google in the AdSense program for free.
