Chinese removes blogger from MSN

Rebecca reports that MSN Spaces has kicked off Anti, a popular blogger who is critical of the Chinese government.

Scoble has just posted in no uncertain terms his disagreement with his employer. (If Microsoft gives Scoble any guff, he should remind them that this is exactly why companies need to have bloggers.) [Tags: RebeccaMackinnon scoble microsoft china blogging censorship]

Scoble's follow-up at 6pm:
"I have been talking to lots of people today, though, inside and outside of Microsoft. In every instance they asked me to keep those conversations confidential. Why? Cause we’re talking about international relations here and the lives of employees. I wish I could go into it more than that, but I can’t. Not yet."
