But MORE, they are using Frank and Sahar as implied endorsers in a campaign called "why mobi" designed to prove MOBI's worth. This comes on the heels of yesterdays debacle when a press release was issued offering Dairy Queen their trademark domain with certain conditions and taking out of context something noted marketing/brand guru Al Ries said in an article as an endorsement of the mOBI domain and implied support of the cybersquatter tactic.
When contacted by TFF, Ries replied, "I did not authorize it or solicit it. Although the author did tell us about it this morning. We had no intention when publishing the article would it ever be used to sell .mobi addresses to the companies mentioned. I don’t think I can stop somebody from quoting an article in the press. We don’t now and would never sell companies their trademarks back."
What balls these MOBI guys have. They may think they are teaching old dogs new tricks and showing Frank Schilling the MOBI wisdom that escaped him, but I bet after slamming him in the 343-page tome of lies and deception, and stealing HIS copyright material to sell everything from satellite dishes to tree and shrub analysis, this is the final straw that will bring him back to blogging. And court.

Sensationalism at it's finest. Have you ever considered working for the tabloids?
Hello again Owen,
We aren't all Mobi "guys", some of the Mobi zealots are actually female...but that would imply that your rantings are modern and up to date. (sorry had to throw that in).
That being said, I do so enjoy all of your brainstorms (truthfully) and I look forward to them in video.
