Wow, so Google penalizes a site if a link to that site shows up in spammy pages? That seems like a new business model for black-hat SEOers: "hey, nice site you have there - it'd be a shame if links to it started appearing all over my spammy network - $$$ will make sure that doesn't happen." Really search engines should just give zero weight rather than negative weight to links from spammy sites.

"Really search engines should just give zero weight rather than negative weight to links from spammy sites" That's what was happening before Penguin/Panda - and it wasn't working. There's no risk to link spamming. Now there is.
