Unbelievable Fisher Labs... You blew this one.
Today, I was simply scrolling through my facebook posts, and about choked when a downblouse shot of a gal with a metal detector showed up on my timeline. It was revealing enough I probably would have gotten in trouble at work if a co-worker had walked by. I KNOW I would have been embarrassed if my wife had walked by.
I contacted FisherLabs and asked them to remove it. Their response? It was a user post, and they're going to allow it because it's not "Explicit." REALLY?
So... people have to be having SEX on your photo threads to remove them? That was it for me.
I posted my opinion on the matter, and promptly unfollowed, then blocked the site completely.
That F44 I was toying with as a replacement for my son's ACE350... nope.
Fine... If people want to post those photos, by all means, I FULLY support their right to do so. But that does NOT mean I have to support them. Nor does it mean I am obligated to continue supporting the company who thinks "family friendly" includes a look down a gals shirt.
AND...when we start suggesting, as a society, that people who have "negative" opinions shouldn't be allowed to speak... that's... well... that's BAD.
Rant over.
Skippy
Wow if I used the same criteria, I would not own a car, motorcycle, my guns, and I should probably just ditch my tv as well. The F44 is such a much better machine than the Ace so it will be your loss, lol. I hope Fender guitars doesn't use sexy women to advertise, I will have to sell the old Strat too!
