If framing with the security=restricted tag remains for images and videos, it probably won't be long before they do the same thing with the web searches. The same argument you presented would still apply

The tag has created a number of issues

Publisher revenues will definitly drop since you lose the first opportunity for a click.

Sites that depended on Javascript or activex for security will now be more vulnerable (although the security should probably have been server side anyway)

The people with the 'made for adsense scraper' mentality will soon find ways to frame content and have their ads appear in their frames while your ads are blocked.

The tag has to be eliminated or modified.

they're sending you traffic--it'd be difficult to say theft. . . . .maybe this may be an extension of the notion that the search engine needs to be aware of what they are linking to and the effects it may have on the user and their browser. Javascript can be an unwelcoming event if used inappropriately
