No, it's not April Fool's Day. Google has indeed cloaked pages on its own search engine and now banned those pages from its index.
Earlier I posted about Google cloaking pages as spotted on Threadwatch (and updated here). Turns out, Google says it's an accident that happened due to it trying to optimize its internal search engine used by AdWords support people. Nevertheless, the company's now banned its own pages from its own search engine for cloaking.
