Shoutwire Considers “Digg” An Illegal Keyword But Accepts Profanities

I picked this up on Wayne Porter's blog. I tracked down the original report via the Digg link at CostPerNews:
"Shoutwire, a Digg competitor, won’t let you submit a story that includes the keyword “Digg.” A fan of the Shoutwire service sent me an email earlier tonight with the tip to try and submit the previous’ post here entitled “Pay Per Digg” to the service."
See the complete report at CostPerNews.

Censorship is no way to become a competitor. Instead, this method of doing business will turn people away from Shoutwire. If you agree, join Wayne Porter, myself and others and
DiggIt.
