Seems like not clicking on any ads should have the same outcome...

I don't see ads, so who knows what is in my profile.

Worse actually, since we usually visit a subset of the web, and by "fake clicking" all the ads of all the websites we visit, we actually give google a pretty good profile of the websites we visit, and that's bad. Fake clicking is not as private as people think it is.
