Microsoft Censoring Blogs on MSN China

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the not-a-surprise-folks dept.

jdfox writes "The BBC is reporting that Microsoft is censoring blogs on MSN China. The words 'freedom', 'democracy' and 'demonstration' are reportedly among the words being blocked. But the article also points out that Microsoft is not the first corporation to censor content when the Chinese government requests it." Slashdot covered this story a few days ago too.

    Next up, US government asks slashdot to censor the words "patriot act", "national ID", and "revolution". Please understand this is for your own protection, as our government has strictly the people's interersts in mind.
