DMOZ Abuse in Israeli SEO Contest

I have heard so many stories of SEOs that have been booted from editing the DMOZ directory, I bet you have as well. A post at Search Engine Watch forums named DMOZ Abuse for SEO Contest discusses a case where one individual stepped over that line.

Basically, the "reported" abuse is by someone who is an editor at the Israeli DMOZ Directory and also is participating in the 1st Israeli SEO Contest.

Tried to read the thread at SEW but receiving the message "you do not have permission to access this page."

dmoz.org.il is not a DMOZ domain, as far as I know this guy can do what he'd like - that's the idea behind ODP
