Who is trying to SEO their way to the top for "how to set redis max memory"? A lot of comments here saying the spam is beating out SO, but what spam and from who and why??

There are many websites that scrape Stack Overflow's content and serve it up again with their own ads.

I don"t see those on google but then again I use a search blocker mainly for those sort of sites.
