Google says Malaysia has supplanted Philippines (no "the") as tenth in countries by pageviews, with 1,453. No. As Google well knows there are these sites-don't click on them-that do nothing other than have their bots crawl web pages, inflating and grossly distorting, readership statistics. One of them is (do not click on this) vampirestats.com. Vampirestats is responsible for over 1,300 bogus pageviews on Public Occurrences in the last 30 days, the vast majority from milk-of-Malaysia. So no, Malaysia is not tenth, the...sorry, Philippines still is. Malaysia, vampirestats, what that lady up there, now down there, says--to you.
