It was very sad to know that Jeremy has his website Shoemoney.com banned from DMOZ.

The reality of DMOZ corruption exists since 2001 when the most volunteers where hungry and after more USD, these cases of DMOZ corruption appears more often in other countries than USA. Now, it has to do with each individual volunteer Karma and how Google should control this corruption issue in the future.

The reason behind shoemoney.com Dmoz extorsion has to do with corruption. Yes, the web and sometimes the most well know internet directory DMOZ.ORG can ask for money and more money.

Jeremy about Shoemoney.com DMOZ EXTORSION

A while back I got a email from a guy claiming to be a DMOZ editor saying that I had to pay him $5,000.00 or he would have my site: shoemoney.com removed from the dmoz.

I thought nothing of it…. then today I got a email from him saying it was removed and I might want to rethink not paying him. I thought I would check just for grins.

It was removed… WOW

dmoz… corrupt… no…..

I never thought I would say this but I don't even care anymore. I am stunned Google still uses this as there business directory as its the most corrupt “editorial� system EVER and especially since now they are trying to talk about paid links and crap…

Seriously I would love to see how they defend this one… How does shoemoney.com NOT belong in DMOZ??

Google seriously its time for you to aquire a business directory that has paid inclusion. There is so much porn and spam in the dmoz its a huge black eye for you. Business.com just got scooped up but there is another one that might be able to get got for a nice price *cough* best of the web *cough*

DUMP DMOZ
