I'm logged in to google day to day and check the main dashboard messages, but haven't bothered using the backlinks view for over 2 years on the new site at all.

I use to obsess over site backlinks and when G data become far out of date along with the time wasted over the disavow file jiggery-pokery I stopped caring and no longer trust their guidelines. Should I look and see what links we have? I would not be at all surprised if there are all negative seo sblog links though. That's mainly all I see in our referral data webstats besides Adwords traffic. Then if I see the negative links, sites copying content, spam blog links, I'll have to waste time trying to remove them and end up wasting time on endless non-product tasks.
