Hey, I'm all for Google improving the Market... but I think when you have repeat offenders like this guy, the proper course of action is to ban him, in my opinion. >From the Android Market Content Policy for Developers:
Developers should not upload or otherwise make available applications or any other materials that: - harm user devices or personal data. - create unpredictable network usage that has an adverse impact on a user's service charges or an Authorized Carrier's network. - knowingly violate an Authorized Carrier's terms of service for allowed usage. - create a spammy user experience, whether by posting repetitive content or misleading information about an application's purpose. That last bullet clearly describes what he's doing...
