Shoutwire Censorship Against Term Digg : Profanity Fair Game

Posted in Censorship, Social Bookmarking, Social Networks by wayne.porter on November 26th, 2006

Pretty lame- it appears Shoutwire is actually blocking the use of the word “digg” in URLS…yet

Shoutwire, a Digg competitor, won ’t let you submit a story that includes the keyword “Digg.” Interesting because interesting, because at this very moment the top three stories on Shoutwire are: 1. Fox News’ Bullsh*t Has Hit The Fan, 2. Was Jesus an A$$hole? and 3. 9 Reasons Why I Love Sl#ts

Yeah I’d day Digg this story. Click Here to Digg
