I hoped as I read that sentence that "learning" could involve learning what not to do as well as learning what to do.

Has anyone ever heard of another case like this? I've been following search pretty closely for most of Google's existence and this is the only bug bounty payout I've ever heard of for a blackhat core algo exploit.

Yep.

Will be sharing and writing about it too - still a bit of a work-in-progress. Hopefully it all comes together nicely!

I'm leaning towards comparisons between tables of data, metrics etc rather than visualisations for much of this.

"Almost everything looks like a graph. Almost nothing should be drawn as one."

It's really hard to make sense of full link graph visualisations. I'm talking about this in an upcoming conference presentation. We should share notes :)
