I have little to no experience in SEO. Does Google have a history of weighing in on situations like this and manually penalizing bad actors? If so, I would love a link to read about.

wow that's amazing, I guess I sort of quit reading blogs like this when all the RSS readers died.

People seem to have stopped producing blogs like this ever since Facebook are the world.

I wonder how much of modern search crappiness is because much of the good content that used to be in small blogs is now locked away behind facebook’s logins.
