Stop showing people what their page rank is. Make everyone a n/a, remove the page rank indicator from their toolbar, and get on with life.

Did they do that? No, instead they embarked on what I can only call a campaign of terror.

Is Google The New Terrorist?

Let me chime in with a couple of thoughts.

Google almost owns the circuit switch of the internet now.

Their business and steadily increasing stock value depends on the increasing internet traffic and natural human need to search in order to find information.

Paid links by trying to “game” Google’s system, essentially creating niches where interlinked ecosystems are getting separated from Google’s ecosystems where all the links are fair and dandy. People entering Google’s ecosystem, changing the rules and whining about penalties are foolish I think, because Google is the judge here.

The thing is, these two ecosystems cannot co-exist with the PR algorithms as they are today.

Yea. It’s kind of puzzling. Like I said, those Google robots have no sense of logic to determine which are the good and which are the bad. I think they have been programmed to look for certain words and blogs with those words are deemed “dirty”. TLA is a dirty word to those robots.

And you are right, paid text can never be abolished. There are already many signs that it is coming on even more strongly and discreetly.
