Google’s Office Hours Hangout featured a question about algorithm updates and whether the rankings of a negatively affected site is suppressed by a “soft penalty.” The person asking the question made reference to a soft penalty, which is a phrase that’s been around for several years but isn’t really a thing.

He then pointed in the air and smiled. Why? Only Kyrgios knows. But he appeared to take great pleasure in the move. It was illegal, of course. You can’t hit an opponent’s ball before it… Source link
