It is very possible to take cloaking to the next level and spam like no tomorrow. It will work but for a short-term. I prefer to optimize for long term results that can continue to be listed on Google for years rather than the month-to-month game of spam bait.
Lesson... it is possible to use cloaking and still remain within ethical SE marketing.

Yes, I can agree with you on this one - there are ethical uses for this. Unfortunately I'd say 90% of our competitors aren't using it for that..
We moved into a new keyword area the other day for our new site, and in some keywords, the first 100(!) results are ALL spam. Keyword stuffed text pages (that story interlaced with keywords thing) cloaked and redirected to popup hell..
Probably the script this idiot is trying to sell. So it does work, until someone who you're competing with notices you spamming the shit out of google and points it out to them. Bam, instant death for all the spammy domains, and better results for people like me and WG. ;>
