Question:
Dear Steve,
I noticed that very little has changed with the new google rules regarding advertising debt relief services. National Debt Relief, Freedom Debt Relief, and a slew of lead generation companies are advertising just as if the rules never changed other than some of them referring to also offering debt consolidation loans. Are there any updates on this google rule? I wonder why Google even bothered to announce they were restricting debt relief companies.
Thanks, Steve!

The logical answer why Google would have rolled out the change is in a reaction to potential liability issues by online service providers, like Google. Sometimes it is just as easy to be seen doing something while not doing much. Or maybe I’m just feeling cynical today.
