Yahoo admits blocking 'Occupy Wall Street' email, apologizes

It's true. Yahoo admits to blocking emails that linked to the http://www.occupywallstreet.org/ website, which posts news about the 4-day-old protest on Wall Street.

Yahoo Care posted a message two hours ago, saying
We apologize 4 blocking 'occupywallst.org' It was not intentional & caught by our spam filters. It is resolved, but may be a residual delay
Another message says,
Thanks @YahooMail users @ThinkProgress for catching problem with Occupywallst.org emails. Prob is fixed, but there may be residual delays.
Interesting.
