China, Democracy, and Freedom

Stefan Tilkov,

Old news to most people, I’m sure; but the MSN spaces policy of banning choosing labels like “freedom” or “democracy” for Chinese users pisses me off greatly.

You might argue there’s no economic difference between this and doing any other sort of business with China. But IMO, you’d be wrong. Shame on you, MS.
