Matt do you think this will be abused at all? I.e. organized blocking of sites on mass to push it down rankings?

Is your block list something that will be synced so that it is available everywhere you use Chrome and eventually just synced with your Google account?

On top of counting the block votes, Google could check if the site is crippled by AdSense links. This could filter some shot-down-my-competitor efforts.
