MSN Censors My Chats

Category: Rants

This phracking sux, and has for a long time. Because the URL of this page (and my other Scriptforge pages) have ‘.scr’ in the domain (www.SCRriptforge) Microsoft feels I am dangerous and silently drops my message. This makes it incredibly hard for me to share my URLs with friends.

Now it seems that the bastards are also blocking YouTube links because they have started a competing service.

FUCK YOU MICROSOFT.

In a week I’m turning off my MSN account, since I have moved most of my contacts to other IM services (Google Talk / Skype). I’m sorry if this means I’ll be missing out on talking to one or two people, but MS is retarded, and by extension anyone who keeps using it is also.

    I don’t know why I didn’t do this a long time ago. I haven’t used a MS operating system for many years, why the hell did I keep MSN going? Well, time to take out the garbage.

    I’ve always been mad, since MS released Windows/386 turned me onto Linux and the crap I’ve had to put up with since. This includes several years as phone support for an ISP during the Win9x era) and especially paying the MS tax on an OS I don’t use but somehow had to pay for when buying certain new PCs/laptops.

    Then they filter/censor my own URLs because they have “.scr” in the domain name (so I couldn’t send URLs of things like photo galleries). The Youtube blocking is the final nail in the coffin. The retard comment is of course a joke, but I do love to say it and I’ll say it again because it brings a smile to my face each time.

    FUCK YOU MICROSOFT
