Yes, it still works fine. Google probably just manually removed the sites mentioned here but never found how to removes site with their algo
Sweet ! Looks like the big G still has a lot of work to do One day Google will have a perfect algo & all the people that try to bend the rules will be banished to a search engine far away LOL
I just found 2 very bad cases... do a google search for myspace. Might change depending on datacenters, but I see #10 as umds.ru/evukd which redirects to an online dating site, and #11 is mdc-ba.sk/qiycp which redirects to some crappy page full of ads. And this is not a dumb keyword, it has a huge overture Hope Google notices this soon and kicks this crap out of their engine
