The BPL ads -- maybe run your own Anti-BPL ad Huh


You miss the point.

ALL Google ads are BPL adds. Google uses the money they get from Adsense
to finance BPL networks. That's right, Google invested a lot of money in
BPL. Using Adsense supports BPL, using Google supports BPL, buying Google
stock supports BPL.

Got it? Google and BPL are connected.

As for supporting those sites, "you pays your money and you makes your
choice".
A click on a Google Adsense ad helps pay for BPL. There are other online
"click here" advertising companies. He chose Google. I chose not to
support
him.

IMHO it's like running a pro-enviornmentweb site and using the proceeds
from advertising to fund toxic waste dumping.

Well if I boycotted every biz that had policies I disagree with, wouldn't be
alot left.

So your quarrel is with Goggle not e-ham.

Strange but just about every major Ham web site is now using Google AdSense.

Guess you will have to start up your own Ham website
