Question:
I was just reading your article on the cell phone boost signal stickers which was very informative and only added to my thoughts that these things couldn’t possibly work. I want to thank you for finally PROVING it. Also, I thought you would like to know that at the bottom of your page there are ads from google…. I’m sure you know the ads are there but the interesting thing is that if you click one of them called *********.com and then and then click their link to **************.com they are selling the product that you just debunked. I just found it amusing that a product that you loathe is unintentionally being advertised by you. I know you didn’t choose to advertise for them or use them but they are USING you!!! Thanks again for the informative article. I look forward to reading more from you.
