taken
up the cudgels against comment spam in what seems like an effective way.
I can see another application: it allows me to express negative feelings
hypertextually without collateral Google-juice damage.
For example, the recent referrer-spam perps, who are
pathetic losers,
ineffectual morons,
abusive predators,
and probably
deserve to be in
jail.
There, wasn’t that fun?
Which suggests an enhancement: rel="justlabel", which says “don’t
count this link for ranking purposes, but do take its content seriously
as relevant to the indicated site.”
