Message-ID: <20031126142142.GA28586@sethf.com> Google Bayesian Spam Filtering Problem? http://sethf.com/anticensorware/google/bayesian-spam.php Abstract: This report describes a possible explanation for recent changes in Google search results, where long-time high-ranking sites have disappeared. It is hypothesized that the changes are a result of the implementation of a "Bayesian spam filtering" algorithm, which is producing unintended consequences. -- Seth Finkelstein Consulting Programmer sethf@sethf.com http://sethf.com DMCA win! - http://sethf.com/pipermail/infothought/2003-October/000002.html Seth Finkelstein's Infothought blog - http://sethf.com/infothought/blog/
