Speaking of Freedom and Microsoft...

...don't bother using certain words if you are a Chinese blogger using Microsoft's MSN for your blog. It seems that Microsoft is working with the Chinese government to keep the MSN blogs clean. Of course, in China "clean" means "free from such words as 'democracy' and 'human rights.'" That's right, Microsoft is editing such horrible language from their users' blogs. With the outstanding track record that Microsoft has on promoting freedom, this should really come as no surprise.
