Ask HN: How to report a spammer website on Google?

#1
Website: codegrepper.com

Recently when I search programing keywords, that website often get very hight position on the search result page. But it has very low quality. The pages on the website were crawled from StackOverflow. Question&Answers are incomplete and sometimes not related. It is really annoying.

- Google is not the police force of the web.

- You, I, and many others don't like those sites but they are legit so, unless they really do shady things that go against Google's TOS, you can't really expect any action to be taken against them.

Google is the police force of the web. They control the most used search index and the most used browser.

I'm not saying that Google is police force. I'm not asking Google to take the webmaster to jail. We are not talking about legality. SPAMMING is obviously against Google's TOS.
