Why is the example you linked a bad thing? He spent months writing hundreds of articles of good content. If you trust the metrics, it looks like a lot of people were reading the articles and finding real value. From the thread: "I’m far from a copywriter, but the content added was informative & above everything else, answered the search query in full. I can blitz out 10k words a day of garbage content easily, but it’s worth putting in extra effort and writing better content, even if there's less of it." This isn't an example of somebody taking advantage of ads to scam anyone. Maybe you disagree, but my take is that this is a legitimate business that provided real value to it's users and happened to use some gray hat SEO to grow.
