    CraigsList is so innocent as a site. They don't even have any kind of advertising on their site. Generally Google is cracking down paid link sites. I can't see any reason Google would go after CraigsList.

    Google states that sites should "avoid" listing their sites in classified ads. There is no mention as to what the punishment would be. There are similar suggestions to avoid links in social sites. Would that be blogs? Or social bookmarking sites?

    This is news, I would assume Google considers links from Craigslist the same with any other site, how would it go about determining if sites are listing their links improperly?
