SE Spammer Revealed

An old argument.

And the truth is many sponsors don't care a bit.

Many sponsors will just ignore such complaints.

But, it would be interesting to see what happens.

If just a few big sponsors decide that their long term interests are better served by avoiding se spam traffic, at least we would know those companies were a good choice for long term support.

I mention the sponsor thing only because any counterattack to spam would work best if you attacked on several fronts at once - and sponsors are one of the weak points that could be attacked.

I agree it is a weak tactic.

But some se spammers steal copy, so if we find stolen copy on a spam page, well, suddenly we have a stronger hand against the sponsor who is profiting from stolen copyrighted material.
