Some of you may remember when Google teamed up with the credit score company (anyone remember the name?). They’ve laid low ever since… until today.
Via Twitter, Google is preparing to serve ads for “high-end” or “luxury” goods and services to people with higher credit scores. No one is going to complain about that, right?

What do you think?
