    Cloaking in 2025, is it really worth it or just a ticking time bomb

    look, the point is the long game. Cloaking is a quick fix that might pay this week but blow up your whole operation next month. Better to invest in solid, legit LPs and geo targeting. Traffic is the lifeblood, and losing it over a gamble ain't worth it. (Just my two cents.)
