The only way seeing an ad is beneficial is if you click on it
This is not really true anymore, though it once was. Most web ads are served on a “cost per impression” basis, not “cost per click”. Even classic AdSense is moving to CPM rather than CPC, and Google AdX (which serves big brand ads) already was, as with the old DoubleClick.
