<b>Meta and Google ban every dating affiliate eventually, so why bother with compliance</b>

Myth: "You'll get banned no matter what — the chats say just cloak everything and farm accounts."

This is the excuse that keeps people stuck on the account-farming treadmill, paying for aged BMs and rebuilding weekly. The bans aren't random weather; they're triggered, and most triggers are self-inflicted: adult creative on a mainstream offer, fake-scarcity claims in the ad copy, redirect chains that scream cloak, landing pages making promises the policy explicitly bans.

Mainstream dating with compliant creative and a genuinely policy-aligned lander runs for months on the same account. The operators who never get banned aren't lucky — they separated their compliant mainstream funnels from their gray adult ones and stopped running adult angles through accounts they wanted to keep.

Cloaking has its place, but treating it as the entire strategy means you're permanently paying the account-replacement tax instead of building anything that compounds. That tax is a line item most farmers never actually subtract from their "profit."

Reality: dating affiliates who never get banned exist — they just stopped running ban-bait through accounts they cared about.
