lol yeh - all of us, right forum? ;)

This has certainly crossed a line.

Web savvy surfers know whats happening to them - so there in a position to stop it.

But those that are new to the web are more easily confused. They could quite easily be lured into thinking that www.mycrappywidgetstore.com is part of the new york times.

It really is on par with aggressive sales techniques that are used offline, that went down the drain a long time ago and are only used by companies that dont have what it takes to offer a quality service.

Really sad.

What next?
