People and SEO Spam like this are ruining the internet. Fuck this shite.

@gamingonlinux What? First of all they did such a anti-competitive move and then are bragging about it on Twitter/X/that deadbird site which should have died

@CodingThunder @gamingonlinux "we have cheated our competitor's SEO with fake articles on our website and we're so proud of it we wanted to tell everyone how unethical we are"

@Deuchnord @CodingThunder @gamingonlinux I think what makes me angry isn't that they did it, if they delisted all their web garbage or were just trying to make a point about how bad it is that this is absurdly easy to do, like, yeah. Google wastes resources on obviously bad idea products and neglects the one thing they made that people actually like.

But like... He's just proud. Like a speedrunner who just found an infinite money glitch. He thinks he struck gold.

@mdstevens0612 @Deuchnord @CodingThunder @gamingonlinux Speedrunners don't usually ruin the game for everyone else.
I think a better comparison would be a Tarkov cheat developer.

@Deuchnord @gamingonlinux Yeah that's so so unethical especially when you are simply feeding LLM/AI crap to people looking for legitamate problems. I would definitely never even consider any product from such an unethical company ever.

Also the web now is such a mess and still many wonder why adblockers exist.ckers is not at all possible for someone who has to use the internet for majority of his stuff. Yeah many good creators get punished by this, but imagining web without adblo

@CodingThunder @Deuchnord @gamingonlinux AI can now sound like it has useful information but it does not actually have it. I try to enter lots of proper nouns into my search query in hopes of finding pages with more information in them. Google does not really like this and ignores most of the proper nouns for any given page so results turn out mixed.
