Google used AdWords Quality Score to take care of a lot of these websites. People paying .07 cents a click saw their prices rise to $1.00 and $2.00 per click.
Google started looking at how much content was on a page, rather the page links out to other related sites, has a contact us page and a privacy policy.
Although once these things are fixed you can be back in the game.
It seems all Google would have to do to fix the problem is make pages with no text on them not rank.
I don’t like sites that make me have to continue clicking to find the information I’m looking for.
Finding a directory or any site with a lot of ads and no text will eventually hurt Google.
