- Microsoft under fire for censoring China blogs
"If Microsoft wants to do business in China they have to obey the laws
set by the Chinese government," Rosoff said, adding that "they've done

Microsoft's censorship was first reported by bloggers and news outlets
in Asia after MSN Spaces was launched in China on May 26. So far, five
million blogs have been created with the service, Microsoft said.

- Anti-censorship web service censors itself
A web-proxy service set up by the US government's
International Broadcasting Bureau to enable websurfers in
Iran to evade censorship is itself massively censoring what
they can see.
That is the conclusion of an independent new report
released from the OpenNet Initiative, an international
collaboration between researchers at the University of
Toronto, Harvard University and the University of Cambridge.
The sites blocked include those of political dissidents,
pro-democracy sites, and western news media such as
news.bbc.com. IBB Anonymizer makes these accessible,
but the report says it also blocks hundreds of other sites.
"This simply looks at the domain name", says Jonathan
Zittrain of Harvard Law School, a coauthor of the report,
and filters out any that contain words on a banned list.
