I believe it does, as they were so misused.

This crawler spam will downgrade rankings
in Google.  They specifically look for text
which is hidden or difficult to see, for
example if it is a similar colour to
the background, and drop the ranking if
any is found, and encourage people to
report websites that use any other sneaky
way of fooling search engines, resulting
in a complete ban.  Not a good idea.
