Prometheus 6

A bunch of specifically anti-Obama bloggers were blocked from their sites by Blogger the other day. Google's explanation is right along the lines I guessed at.

“It appears that our anti-spam filters caused some Blogger accounts to be blocked from creating new posts,” a Google spokesman, Adam Kovacevich, said in a statement. “While we are still investigating, we believe this may have been caused by mass spam e-mails mentioning the ‘Just Say No Deal’ network of blogs, which in turn caused our system to classify the blog addresses mentioned in the e-mails as spam. We have restored posting rights to the affected blogs, and it is very important to us that Blogger remain a tool for political debate and free expression.” 

In a way this reminds me of the absolutely hysterical case of Tyson Homosexual.
