MySpace Does a Little Censoring of Its Own

Every so often we read about a library filtering MySpace for one reason or another. Now it looks like MySpace is filtering itself.

The site seems to be replacing provocative words in interstitial e-mails. The words “sex toys” arrives with the words replaced with pound symbols, “### ####.”

More disturbing is that LGBT organizations are finding that their e-mails and communications are also censored, with MySpace even go so far as to alter links within profiles.
