They run the search engine that is the target of spam bloggers, they run the hosting service that most spam bloggers prefer, Blogger, and they run the ad network that generates most of the revenue. In my personal experience, Google is very serious about stopping copyright infringement using the Adsense network, but not necessarily spam. Since most spammers now take such small portions as to not necessarily violate copyright, it falls back from the Adsense DMCA system and into the more generic Google Adsense TOS violations. Sadly, the latter of the two seems to be in disarray. Overrun by spammers and bogged down by a strange disjunct between the Bloggers, Google and Adsense abuse teams. The right hand doesn't seem to know what the left is doing. Getting a blogger account cut for spam does not always get the Adsense account cut and vice versa. It's a frustrating situation to say the least and I hope that this Google patent you link to might be the beginning of the end for the spam issue. I've been hoping they've had a secret plan to attack this. Maybe that hope is being fulfilled. Regardless, a guy has to dream doesn't he? Anyway, thank you for the interesting article! I appreciate you drawing attention to this subject. I’ve talked a few times about Google’s rather odd role on scraping and spam blogging on my site.
