    Just had an Al Jolson cd removed for policy violation, I kid you not.

    That's insane, especially considering that anyone who knows a bit of history will know that Jolson himself was outspoken against racism, and close friends with many black jazz musicians of the era.

    I have had a couple of Nazi badges on recently, no problem there, but come on, it's crazy.

    We had to remove your listing because it didn’t follow our Offensive material policy. Listings that promote or glorify hatred, violence, or discrimination aren’t allowed.

    They were quite specific about it, Incredible really but the way the world is moving it's inevitable.

    The automatic detection software will have picked something stupid up and flagged it. It's not as if they have somebody sat there checking each item.

    Computer says no! :(
