Hidden text for search engines

WhatsGoingOn · 2005-06-13 18:56:20

Wow what an abstraction.

For all practical purposes there is no law on the internet. (Tho It could be argued that search engine spamming constitutes false advertising of a sort and is as such against the law). In practice, the large search engines provide a bit of authority.
