Google I surrender!!!!

[profitline]

As you guys know, recently google is dropping pagerank again and many were affected especially those who does paid sponsors or leave a note that they are doing a paid review without the nofollow rule.

What have you to say about this?

I read a post and infact there was a banner on the top page of johnchow.com saying I surrender, some people are getting screwed, it hasnt bothered me so far but anything cna change, I think I am going to take chow's advice and removed my sponsored links text and rename it to reccomended links

Why would Google be doing this? What do they gain out of dropping peoples page ranks?

I suppose Google wants to protect its business, and wants to try to deliver as best of "natural" result as they can. At least thats the explanation i heard ;)
