After hearing unanimous agreement to the suggestion that Google (finally) contact site publishers when their sites run afoul of Google's webmaster guidelines, Matt Cutts noted that Google has begun to do just that.
It was one of those questions that has come up at conferences before: "Why don't you tell someone about a problem before dropping them?" Many webmasters have been frustrated to see their sites suddenly drop from Google's index, with no idea why it happened.
