"I doubt just saying the word "Amazon" can really be an instant rejection"

Neither she nor anyone else is claiming that, so I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here.

Huh? The link title says: "iBookstore rejects Holly Lisle's writing course because she mentions Amazon"

1) Not "instant rejection". 2) Not "just saying the word Amazon".

She isn't claiming it is an instant rejection I don't think. But it sounds like they flagged it initially based on links, she removed the links and then they said it was actually the content itself.

A Big Six publisher had an eBook rejected by Apple because it mentioned there was also a Kindle edition available.
