Specifically Google.

Truth is, Yahoo! knows people don’t use its search the way they use Google’s. Obviously they’re not trying to game themselves, but it’s pretty obvious they are trying to game other search engines.

I have the screen shots to prove that it was happening. The page they have up right now is the same keyword stuffed page that they were only showing to the bots and not the users.

Not that I don't believe you, I do, but why in the world would Yahoo, a powerful internet presence in almost everything pull something like this. They already have traffic and whatnot, people use their services religiously, so why do something like this?<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('19165','Dave'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('19165','Dave','I dunno, that doesn\'t make any sense.
