From the China Economic Net: “Microsoft so far has no immediate plans to tap the Internet service market in China, due to concerns over the market situation, and not speculation about policy restrictions, say senior company officials.
“Our very focus in China is still offering free products… to help our consumers achieve a user experience with MSN, as we are doing in other emerging markets,” said Sharon Baylay, general manager of Microsoft MSN ICAN section, responsible for MSN business in emerging markets including Asia, South America and Australia.”
However, according to BoingBoing, Microsoft has already started paying its “Censorship Tax” in China – building in the Chinese government’s policies into its new blogging software.
