does this means that google actually formally disallowed Search Engine optimization because it's manipulating the former pageRank algorithm ?

nevertheless, www.become.com is still returning the search for "SEO Inc"

You probably deserved the C&D. You need to get your facts before trying to discredit a company.

I have to agree with john thomas....you can't just go around talking smack on companies unless you have your facts and/or evidence to prove your words. I've seen this on your blog before and feel it's the worst part of this site. You do have good info, don't get me wrong, but the various bashings bring it down.

Reader, I prefer to discuss this with those putting their full name here, and who point to specific posts.
In any case, I will end this thread now because I received a C&D and can't openly defend myself in this issue.
