Xbox Live Disallows Linux, Unix As Keywords
via /.
The Xbox Live online service disallows screen names like LINUXRULES, L I N U X, and other variations of these kinds. Other bloggers are reporting that variants of 'Unix' also result in the message: 'Your motto contains inappropriate language. Please try again.'"
If this is an extension of Microsoft's anti-Linux campaign, perhaps it's time they gave it up.

Pretty stupid to block those words if you ask me. I wonder if any other other words (obviously apart from swearing) is on the blacklist?
