What kind of bug blocks mention of competitor?
They've demonstrated that they have a global blacklist of terms, and that some competing services are on it. It could have been an accident (though I'm not sure how), but it certainly wasn't a bug. The blacklist is clearly working just fine.
The article suggested it was a bug, not me. My use of it was only in reference to the article so it’s not a point I’m going to defend.
I didn't say otherwise, and I didn't ask you to defend anything. Sometimes, one just continues a discussion or talking point.
