For everyone defending the use of AI to mass-produce more AI slop in my prev post, this is for you.
This is what shows up in Google Search Console when you chase bot traffic instead of real users.
A year ago, I used one of my idle domains to publish 900+ blogs with no internal linking and nothing but AI slop. Guess what? This is what happened after the recent update.
If you want to risk it - be my guest.

@JohnMu and @searchliaison, a question about Google News indexing issues: if there is no longer a dedicated google news crawler and googlebot is the main crawler, why there are issue specific to indexing news? Is crawling News works fine, but classifying the content as news is the issue? And why the indexing issue is google news and not in top stories? I know they are separate systems.

Dumb SEO Questions community over on FB has been attacked with every member permanently banned.
Anyone have any connections at FB to look into this.
Seems a little to easy to take down a community that has been running for 10 years 🤯

A while back I made a tool to let me and my girlfriend watch movies remotely together. 🌍
Since we're all stuck at home, it felt like a good time to spruce it up so that others can get some use from it 😀
It now has full Netflix support!📺

I’m told that the mobile Immigration unit in Chalong won’t open today because “they don't have enough officers available”. Hopefully this won’t mean some tourists end up overstaying and have to pay the daily overstay fine #COVID19 #โควิด19 #Thailand – at Samut Prakan, Thailand
Richard Hearne retweeted
This video clip was sent to me of Immigration on Samui this morning. Stranded tourists & expats are trying to extend their stay but there are many hoops to jump through. Some have told me they’re being fined for overstaying even though there are no flights. Madness! #Thailand – at Samut Prakan, Thailand
Richard Hearne retweeted
I know I said it before, but I will repeat it again. When will this madness end? The government are saying they want everyone to #StayAtHome and only go out if really necessary. But this is the scene this morning at the Immigration in Pattaya. Why put people in danger? #Thailand

#BREAKING: The Civilian Aviation Authority of Thailand is banning the arrival of ALL passenger flights to the country for the next 3 days (Apr 4-6).

Thailand‘s #COVID19 lab test backlog was growing. As of 31 March, DDC reported 7,593 pending lab tests (red arrow in ENG & THA sitreps).
Now, DDC has simply edited out pending lab test figures from its situation reports without explanation. WHY? ddc.moph.go.th/viralpneumoni…

Thailand needs to sort this out. Senseless bureaucracy is all very well in normal times, but inexcusable when there is such a health risk, and people have enough else to deal with. Wake up!
So. Right at the moment I can't ride a bicycle by myself in Lumpini Park, but I can catch a taxi to, and spend half a day, at Chang Wattana surrounded by people to help some bureaucrats ascertain I'm still here after 90 days? Seriously? That's my choice @RichardBarrow @pakhead

Dear @ThailandFanClub & @MFAThai, Thailand has made a lot of money from foreign tourists over the years, but the way they’re being treated at Immigration offices is disgraceful. Why can’t #Thailand grant an immediate visa amnesty like other countries have done for Thai citizens? – at Samut Prakan, Thailand
