While it's now been a year or so since the great Traffic Power debacle, the SEO firm that ended up getting many of its client sites dropped from Google for violating the Google Webmaster guidelines is back in the news this week.
Part of what has kept Traffic Power on the radar is their ongoing legal battle against popular search marketing blogger Aaron Wall. Traffic Power's lawsuit is partly based on their claim that Aaron improperly stated that both Traffic Power and client sites had been banned from Google. Interestingly enough, Google's king of web spam, Matt Cutts, has seen fit to point out in his official capacity that Traffic Power HAS actually been banned from Google, thus making Aaron's claims 100% accurate.
There is a lengthy ongoing conversation on the topic at Search Engine Watch.
