Beijing, June 13: Users of Microsoft's new China-based Internet portal were blocked today from using the words "democracy", "freedom" and "human rights" in an apparent move by the US software giant to appease Beijing. Other words that could not be used on Microsoft's free online blog service MSN spaces include "Taiwan independence" and "demonstration". Bloggers who enter such words or other politically charged or pornographic content are prompted with a message that reads: "This item should not contain forbidden speech such as profanity. Please enter a different word for this item".

I think that's just another term for CENSORSHIP and I THINK IT'S BULL****!
