Google Adwords and PSO attack ad - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

GregAndrew · 01-08-2012, 11:31 AM

I saw that stupid sack of lies again on Windfinder.com this morning and decided to send them an email. Surprisingly they got back to me in just a couple hours. They said the ads were provided by Google Adwords, and if I provided them with the URL of the ad, they would have it blocked. I could not believe how fast that was accomplished, but I wanted more. So I went to Google Adwords and found there contact info. Here is how to get there quickly and leave a little note (I just said that the ad was full of lies and they should expect more complaints from the public and their member sites displaying the ads. https://support.google.com/adwords/b...gories&guest=1

I actually felt compelled to send in the fisherman's perspective to the originators of the smear ad after seeing it once too often.

Whether it fell on deaf ears or not, I felt I raised key points that they seem to be overlooking. Corruption is corruption no matter how you wrap it up and their perception of the greater good is no excuse for ignoring this crucial factor.

Yeah, I considered a note to the econuts but it would have turned into an extremely long diatribe. Never considered just to point out the basic lack of ethics of their attack. I just figured that we could take away their microphone for a little while at least.
