Megaphone Desktop Tool is one of a kind tool that used mainly to support Israel and Jewish based online media attacks. This application is used by Jewish students and youth around the world to support Israel and attack critics of Israel in real time using online social bookmarking and comment pages. Although social bookmarking sites Digg’s TOS bans this kind of activity that would eliminate the natural way of public voice, this website has been active and working for Israel supporters to achieve their goal.

 A recent such ban came from Digg, social bookmarking website,  to a Palestine supporter who was only digging pages in favor of Palestine and burying the articles she disliked. She described this situation on her blog and explained the two sided policy of Digg by disclosing full details of Megaphone Desktop Tool.
