Sure, I agree. But what does it have to do with the parent comment's claim?

The point is that google should be penalizing sites that do that in search results, or at least in chrome with some kind of browser recognition - as the OP states in the article.

They should do more than penalize them in search. They should add them to their malicious site list.
