Microsoft is not the only one applying censorship in China.

According to the following article, The Great Firewall of China, another company should enforce Chineese censorship. To get into the chineese market and avoid problems with the Chinese leadership, Skype needed filters to screen out words in text messages deemed offensive by Beijing.

Now, it's Google turn: "Google has agreed to censor its results in China, adhering to the country's free-speech restrictions in return for better access in the Internet's fastest growing market."

Why are so many companies selling their souls to the Devil without regard for our liberties? Damned money...
