Microsoft censors Chinese blogger
A Microsoft representative told ZDNet UK on Wednesday that it blocked Anti's MSN Space blog to help ensure that the service complied with local laws in China.

And that is why they did it. Seems pretty straight forward to me. Now before people start going off on the MS evil campaign (notice no dollar sign you chumps), lest ye not forget about Google and its censoring.
