Big Deal

Sheesh, Violet - your alarmist headline had me worried there for a minute. I'm not understanding your beef -
do you think the very experienced founders of YouTube will go all evil on us and start censoring stuff just to piss people like you off? Not likely.

Delicious is a private company, so free speech rights just don't apply. Whether you're using Facebook, Twitter, or any private site, you need to respect the wishes of the host.

What's more, you can't even issue a stream of profanity on the public airwaves. Just ask Howard Stern about that. Besides, how much porn and offensive content gets widely linked on Delicious anyway?

You're really making a mountain out of molehill. After reading this post, I'm even happier to have opted in to the new Delicious terms of service. The new owners seem to actually care about the future of the service - unmanaged sites where anything goes are generally worthless. Whittle's law: "In the age of user-generated content, the bad drives away the good."
