I don't know whether that does or does not exclude the original post itself? ;) kaled, it could also mean that there are some hidden - and less obvious - agendas behind some of the posts. I wish I was clever enough to know which ones and figure out what those agendas are. quotations, I feel for you but I thought Google was serious about DMCA issues. Do they not see one here? Also, it is not the case that all cloaking is penalised, AFAIK. Maybe, they're skirting a fine line. It is well known that Google like to do things via algo and automatic systems rather than hand-editing. If that is the case it may well be that they are taking this situation into account while tweaking their systems to catch such culprits automatically.
After reading more on the Internet and talking with some expert friends overhere, I have to agree with Brett that:
"there is so much more going on here that meets the eye"
