And while I avoid techniques like cloaking or keyword spamming myself, if I try to look through someone elses lenses I can see how they might manage to justify it to themselves. There maybe things I do that someone else might question. However none of the above is ripping off other webmasters.
The sites I’m complaining about aren’t made by man, they are automated digitized bullshit.
I agree totally. I don’t care what anyone does as long as it is not hurting others. Cloaking and keyword spamming do not bother me particularly.
Copying and scraping and a few other techniques ARE designed to hurt others directly and need to be dealt with.
I think the recurring problem with these conversations is that we lack definitions. We are throwing all kinds of methods in one basket, and some people feel they have to defend some method or another.
