Hacker Gets Prominent Evolution Archive Booted from Google Index

Nate Anderson writes on ARS Technica:

Webmasters aren't pleased when they run into problems with Google, and Wesley Elsberry was no exception. Elsberry, the webmaster of the Talk.Origins archive, made his displeasure public in a blog post after Google booted his site from their search index.

This sort of thing happens frequently, but a public response from Google is uncommon, and it sheds some light on how Google handles its relationships with webmasters. It's also a great example of how far you'll get with a problem if you call Google on the phone.
