I admit I struggled to come up with a headline for it and my choice of wording was not very good. However, he did lose search traffic as a scraper site took over his top ranking for certain searches.
A good headline would have been "Google rejects an original content site from Adwords due to scrapers." He may have a quite legitimate complaint, but it doesn't seem to involve search.
I sent the site owner an email to see if he can comment on more general search queries he may have lost ranking on. If it is just that long quoted one I agree that your suggested headline would be better.
