Most hubs will ban for using GLO, so um, yeah, that's not a good thing at all. Just having it alone gives rise to several major problems. First, everybody will be using it, and every hub on the hub list will be flooded with searches. If upwards of 100k users start searching on every hub, think about what it'd do to the hubs.

Besides, it's a good idea in principle, but only for leechers (which is why it's banned in most hubs in the first place).
