TBH I don't really care what Google does. Even Ripoffreports saw the light and volunteered to not spread their smut to Europe knowing that big trouble was coming their way. Why adapt to Google; let Google adapt to us to remain relevant. Google is a very good search engine, but is it still really just a search engine when it determines what has to be part of your content to be counted? Will they penalize YouTube for being linked (a lot) in Steemit? Why not?
