IBOA using "Bo Short" in Google Ad?

By QBlog in IBOAI

A site visitor alerted me to this interesting little tidbit. The IBOA apparently has a Google Ad for the phrase "Bo Short" (screenshot). Searching Google for "Bo Short" produces an ad on the right side of the page with this text "Age Defying: Artistry" linking to an IBO Facts page discussing an Artistry product. Just thought it was interesting, especially since I've heard rumors that Passport Associates were banned from using the word "Quixtar" in their Google Ads after Quixtar pressured Google to scrap the ads.

It looks like they are using his name for an XS link, too.

Frankly, I find this amusing. I hope people understand that this organization is much like the wizard in the land of Oz. Pull away the curtain and you will find "small" cowardly people that that are having to face the truth regarding their knowledge of the decades of pain people have endured under their watch.

They can establish arbitration agreements that one judge called "unconscionable". They can establish new rules that prevent people from exercising valid options. They can allow their so-called leaders to develop a system that creates loyalty and dependency (their words). They can also peddle their wares using my name. The fact is...IT'S coming and they know it. The problem is...they don't know what to do about it.

I do not mind them using my name in a word search. Quite honestly, it demonstrates the magnitude of their concern.

Then again, that’s my opinion.

I wonder how long this'll go on.

I wonder when they'll know what to do about it, if they'll do anything.

They may just let the AMOs kill it and let them (the AMOs) take the blame, distancing themselves from all responsibility.

My (wonderful) Mom always says ... "Time will tell."

Well, Bo, meet the wizard. What, exactly, is coming? Nobody is going to take out Quixtar. Ever. You left to start a business with a few anti-aging products that have no long term research or scientific backing? There are hundreds of those already. Best of luck.
