To all users:
I am running software on my computer, which looks into any weblinks called up (in the background) when I open a site. It intercepts any such "home calls", e.g. when I go onto a commercial site. But our forum was always "clean". Guess my surprise, when I noticed this morning ... for the first time ever ... that cb1100forum.com calls up Google analytics. Has anybody (moderators, admin, other ???) approved or at least acknowledged this change ?
Do we care ? yes we do, or at least ... we should. Why should Google be allowed to make money with our forum, when this money does not go to our community, the operating cost ( web service ), or anything else to our benefit ?
