US Legal Firms, Infosys Employees and Online Advertising

Today I ran a search in Del.icio.us for Infosys to get some information. What I saw in the results page is height of online anti-advertising. Generally you expect to see some ads related to the search tags. What you see here is on a different dimension altogether.

Which means, the actual underpaying / unpaid-overtime may not have occured at all. They were just anticipating that such a thing would happen and then it will bring them business.
