Just ask me…
February 25th, 2008This site has Google Adsense advertisements. While this is good for our continuing to be able to offer this service, it is not without peril for you.
Why, you may ask? Because some of those “colleges” and “high schools” are diploma mills. While I try to stop them from showing up (and there is a process to do so), these are unethical enterprises. As with most unethical enterprises, they are quite good at being unethical. In other words, I stop one URL and they create twelve more. Some less obvious and some that are more obvious.
I periodically do look to see what is actually showing up on the site and stop the more obvious. But sometimes they look fine because, oh yeah, the unethical are good at being unethical.
How do we get past that? I encourage you to ask my thoughts on a particular school in the forum. The nice thing about asking there is that others get the benefit of the conversation.
