I do agree that it's not ethical. But taking the number of spam comments I receive daily, I can say that not much ethical people are left around. Thanks for sharing this story. I might dig more into it. Yeap. I do agree that it’s not ethical. But taking the number of spam comments I receive daily, I can say that not much ethical people are left around.

Take the case of this Aussie guy who blogged about how his ex duped him off his money, and about how the ex's friends are like this and like that... He published so much trash against the ex and his friends that people flocked to his site and, reportedly, he's now getting millions of hits. IMHO, creating controversy to increase your blog traffic is underhanded. It works, but it's not ethical. Controversy sure does work for bloggers who want to become instantly famous.
