I do believe google can shut down all pbns for good if it really wanted. Just stop retaining link juice if the domain drops of if it expires and drastically changes nameservers, registrar info and content.

With enough historical data of a website, it's a no brainier to know when a site has changed hands.

Great share @KHer0

PBN is not the best link you can get, but the most effective one definitely.

The best setup one, of course.

People change their hosting all the time. People sell their website and domain flipping is a very lucrative business. This is easily than done, basically, there is a golden rule " Don't ruin good people experience to fight the bad ones" .. If there are good uses and bad uses, then you CAN'T shut it down to prevent bad uses
