Trackback Spammers Breach TypePad Defenses

According to Threadwatch, spammers have found a way to get round the defences at SixApart’s TypePad and obtain nofollow-less links from TypePad blogs, including Seth Godin’s blog according to Brian.

What I find particularly ironic is that this blog, and others I read, have pinged Seth’s blog and not shown up as trackbacks – and yet the trackback spammers have found a way to get high-class referrals from him.

According to Nick, Seth needs to do a little weekend housecleaning.
