Moving to unity-lens-shopping package, which is what displays the
shopping links -- dash package is a command line shell.

** Package changed: dash (Ubuntu) => unity-lens-shopping (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Dash peddling dope and selling porn

Status in “unity-lens-shopping” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This happens across all of my installations.

  When I use a dash, trying to get to the Ubuntu store, I typically type, "Store", and press enter. Amazon however has its own ideas of what I am looking for, and tends to link trashy romance novels with promiscuous cover photos, or sometimes down right pornographic images from what I presume to be a post modern book of some sort. Here is the link to the trashy romance novel:
  http://www.amazon.com/Candy-Store-Bella-Andre/dp/1453874186%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAIQ733ZDLGFIV6PEQ%26tag%3Du1treatyrslf-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D1453874186

  Now, I know I am not searching for any [pornographic] post modern
  rubbish [trying to pass itself off as art], or trashy romance novels
  on my computer, so I know it isn't posting results based on what it
  has learnt from me. To this extent, I actively try to avoid
  promiscuous activities, and see it as a vice that is often admittedly
  difficult to resist. I have no problem in principle with what Ubuntu
  is trying to accomplish with Amazon, in fact, I think it is
  commendable. However I draw the line at when it starts trying to
  peddle its dope to me and by extension, my family. It is especially
  hanous when it includes pictures of topless women, or skanky mini-
  skirts being felt up by chiselled men.

  Please, filter this rubbish out of Ubuntu.

  1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu
  12.10, 64 bit and 32bit

  2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center
  0.5.7-3 Dash

  3) What you expected to happen
  Search for "Store", and Amazon post results that were "safe" for work and family. Perhaps a book on entrepreneurship, or the movie, "Ernest goes to the supermarket".

  4) What happened instead
  Book covers containing Topless women in one case, and a skanky mini-skirt woman being felt up by a shirtless man in another.
