According to a whois the site is run by the owner of this site: http://www.paybuyer.com/ http://www.paybuyer.com/
PayBuyer appears to be an ad network. In other words, the guy could care less about Android and is just mad that AdSense/AdWords dominates.
It's funny that supporters of RIM have taken it seriously without doing 30 seconds of research.

- brianb722 15y agoWhoops. Just zoomed right past the site's About. Not sure how anyone can take this thing as more than a publicity stunt.
- Wilduck 15y agoThey don't claim it's anything more. From their website: """ 1. "Isn't this just a gimmick to promote a startup?" Yes, of course, FightAndroid.org is intended to help a startup (Paybuyer) – a startup that will indeed damage Google's AdWords and Android if it succeeds. To see why, view this PowerPoint presentation given to RIM executives in late March. """

- jamesbritt 15y agoI've had dealings with paybuyer and Mike Rosides. I will never have anything to do with them ever again. Just the thought of it makes my skin crawl.
