If these sites are as bad as you claim, hacker news users will easily be able to spot them and nuke them from their results... I have a sneaking suspicion that those of you passing around lists of sites have ulterior motives.

My ulterior motive is I'm sick of seeing crap sites like bigresource.com and bytes.com. All they are is scraped/stolen content wrapped around AdSense, and I don't even know how many times I've clicked on them without thinking.

bigresource is the most annoying, one time those assholes put a fricking CAPTCHA in place so you had to prove you were human to get to the source link they STOLE the content from.
