Vietnam’s internet authorities rejected a website for a grapefruit wholesaler over fears web surfers might think it was a sex site.

The attempt to register www.buoi.com.vn was turned down because without proper Vietnamese tone and vowel markings the word “buoi” (grapefruit) might be confused with “buoi” (penis), said Minh Ngoc, an officer at the Vietnam Internet Network Information Centre.
