Has anyone tried to contact these sites to let them know about nofollow? Perhaps they are just ignorant of the technology, since it's not their core competency.
"nofollow is a bad idea and I wish Google stopped using, Matt."
Note that rel=nofollow is just a mechanism to indicate to search engines "Please don't give this link weight in computing reputation or search results." If you're talking about a website that is doing shady things, that's a perfect time to use the rel=nofollow attribute if you link to that website.

Agreed. That's an easy change that those websites should consider adding.

nofollow is a bad idea and I wish Google stopped using, Matt. You can't trust people saying "these are not bad guys".
Anyway, shouldn't getsatisfaction reward good customer service? You're just saying it's their problem to filter what's bad, for their your's users.

no why is there no rel=badsite tag to indicate that you dislike a page/website?
