The Yahoo Answers Conspiracy?

Question

Yahoo must get paid by big companies to block competitor links. Let me explain I can post to http://www.apple.com but I can post a link to here http:// www dot audioaustralia dot net Do you know why I think yahoo gets paid to block competitors links I know the deals are better art the website I metioned!! I bet you can't post a link to www dot audio australia dot net can you??

If it's not for money why else would they block a legit 100% safe link? They must have some motive behind it??

Answer 1

LOL - . Everything is business these days and it wouldn't have been all that surprising if it had been the case.

Answer 2

Yes this site was blocked a few day ago I know because I tried to post links to it it must have been a temperary block because it works now. I wonder if it is because of the post that it has started working again :-p

Answer 3

lets see if my site works

http://www.penguinlord.com

Answer 4

Interesting theory, I've never come across any links I've posted being blocked though.

let me see http://www.audioaustralia.net

EDIT - yep works !

I have heard of some uses saying they can't post wikipedia links - but again, I've never had any trouble.  Maybe there is something in your browser settings .... that needs looking into.
