In fact I can see people booby trapping their backlink profile.

If the tool works like they say it does, then you can play a whole lot more tricks than it has ever been possible before. Why not buying tons of spammy links and then if damaged, disavowing them group-by-group to see what links are causing the problem? Why not buying a ton of links and disavow them, just to bury a few useful links that you have in a huge pile of junk to mislead the competition? And if you can buy links and disavow them after that, but wouldn't Google just ignore them in the first place?

All this doesn't make sense to me. I am not even sure that there is any substance in all this. Probably just FUD by Google. They've been making so much noise lately, and yet the SERPs just becoming worse and worse. Add to this their failure in social media. The best Google's years are behind them ...
