Google whack BMW Deutschland.
BMW Deutschland's been using crafty JavaScript to fool Google. No we haven't say BMW Deutschland. Yes you have say Google. Funky pages made to get hits and ranking - and then users are shuttled off to other pages when they click. 'Cloaking'.
So the ultra-ethical Google, today a paradigm of honour in the connected world, slapped the knuckles of their German brethren. BMW Deutschland will now remain at the rock bottom of Google page rankings until the government in Beijing grant clemency.
And in unrelated news Google stock's falling. All's not wrong with the planet.
