Hello? Rights? What user rights do we have online. If you look at the .com behind MySpace it's clearly a commercial entity. If you don't like it. Don't go there. It's only a website.

MoveOn is off base. There is no freedom of speech when it comes to corporations. It's only citizens' rights to speak out against the government, and a corporation doesn't have to allow them a venue to do it. If you want to have complete freedom, you buy your own domain and run your own server.

Hey Kristen,
Stop passing on propaganda as reporting. MoveOn is not part of the Internet grassroots culture. It is highly discplined, George Soros influenced, organization that uses relentless Gramscian propaganda techniques as it tries to prepare the ground for the "long march through the institutions".
Some little twerp at MoveOn got a gold star for getting you to bite on this "story line". They may call themselves "a political awareness and collective organization site providing resources to those interested in political action" but you don't have to regurgitate this pablum, designed to disguise their hard core partisan malice. They are an extremist organization, using the vile techniques of discredited 20th century Marxists.

Embedding StickAm, etc. tags in your profo has been a violation of MS TOS for a while now, but haven't monitored their TOS closely enough to know when (if at all) this change happened.
Ideally, when kids hear about this, it will make them think critically about their MySpace experience and perhaps even turn that critical eye to the political sphere.
But the reality? I'm guessing same old same old, status quo, until there's a better playground.
Free markets, baby.

I'd hate it is someone told me that I shouldn't censor my own site, myspace owns the site, they should be allowed to censor whatever they want, if someone don't like it just boycott it.

http://spaces.abuse-of-power.org/ I decided to start my own social network aimed at political bloggers, activists, grassroots organizations, etc... Here you do not have to worry about your messages getting filtered out, or getting your account deleted(Unless you are spreading hate propaganda or kiddie porn). I have provided features similar to other popular social networking sites including, Profiles, Friends, Bookmarks, Unlimited Personal Pages, Communities(groups), Personal and Community Blogs/Forums, Personal and Community Event Calendars, 30mb Personal File Storage(For Images and Video), and a Private Messaging System. Also there are no advertisements. You also have the ability to setup access groups for your friends allowing you to control what each group of friends see, everything you add has its own access settings. There are currently no members to speak of but if everyone reposts this maybe that can change. http://spaces.abuse-of-power.org/

MySpace is indeed a private site and a corporate owned entity, BUT its user base is made up of people whose attention and clicks drive its profitability. If they(the users) make enough noise, then they must be heard as MySpace does not have very many non-replicable selling points aside from its HUGE user base. I myself have started a site addressing the issues that Bands and Fans of those Bands face on the site and hope to draw enough attention to it to force MySpace's hand. The goal is not in dictating what MySpace does, but in FORCING them to acknowledge that they must have discourse with - and also - address the needs of the users. Stop by the Beta site and lend your support if you can agree with our points! http://moremyspacemusic.com

Too many restrictions.. Think they gonna have a huge amount of dead profiles soon.
A lot of the people commenting got it right. Move On is only concerned with one kind of 'political action'. It is curious that the author doesn't just identify them as a liberal/democrat party lobby organization. I am certain that they are only investigating censorship of causes and pages that they endorse. I doubt that they will raise any cry over MySpace censoring anti-abortion pages for instance...Move On is not looking out for everyones freedom of speech not to mention that MySpace is a privately owned entity. Should private companies be told what to do by Lobbyists?
