Google Purges Scraper Sites

Yesterday afternoon, GoogleGuy posted a reply [msn #16] at a WebmasterWorld saying:

I believe some scraper sites went out today. It's something that we're going to look more at over time, too.

This inspired a new thread at WebmasterWorld named Scraper Site Clearout Collateral Damage? Where members are upset that Google would deem their sites as "scraper sites."
