I was just reading that thread and was thinking to myself some people just don't get it.

Maybe this will lead to DMOZ going away completely, which I think would be a good thing.

Well, hopefully it will be a step towards google also completely ignoring DMOZ. That has to be one of the biggest cesspools on the net, packed full of junk, scams, expired and redirected domains, and whatnot. DMOZ as a concept was good... people do it better. But people also fuck other people, steal, lie, cheat, and keep a finger on the scale to get their way.

RIP DMOZ now just get into the fucking hole so we can shovel the dirt on you good and proper.
