We have rock solid, knowable content to offer -- information that advertisers should pay dearly for and Google not take away from us in the form of some sort of penalty.

They invented a valuable product (Page Rank) and a system that calculates it. Some folks figured out a way to sell some of their PR via purchased links. Now Google is mad because some people have effectivly broken their ranking system by introducing these paid links into the mix. This is not unlike the recent legislation the RIAA has been pushing to kill the used CD market. See, Google has no problem profiting off of PR for its own benefit but, once the little guys figures out how they can profit as well Google throws a fit!
