MSN Messenger
There had been rumours lately about the possibility of MSN messenger being removed, I was told that it is because of child abuse and child predators online.
The children's Online Privacy protection Act was signed on 1998 and was effective 2000. The Privacy act is for those web hosters who have their sites for children under 13 and who collect personal information about children or if there is a generic website where specifically you know of cases where children under 13 are engaged then the Privacy protection act becomes effective to those sites and people who own them.
1. This law is only within US , not a common law elsewhere in the world
2. So by this law we can have only american citizens or whoever is in america and misusing this act arrested.
3. MSN messenger is used by everyone all over the world and it is free. Charging for MSN for all users would virtually narrow down the numbers to western world .
4. Messenger alone cannot be banned without banning hotmal as they are closely interlinked
5. If both MSN and hotmail therefore are removed as free service , Yahoo, AOL its competitor in the web world would gain more access and power as a portal and as a free service giant, which MSN would not like.
6. If MSN chat is closing down , one good thing would be it could be a growing precedent by yahoo too soon follow or yahoo would exploit and become more popular with its already famous chat rooms.
7. Many will move to other Providers as they would have lost a major list of chat mates already.
8. MSN chat rooms can be closed but not messenger , for they dont acheive anything closing MSN messenger , there is yahoo chat , ICQ and IRC and so many free services which would become popular
9. I dont see any reason Microsoft would shut down MSN messenger having gone with recent newer versions of MSN messenger.
10. huff1 finally i read in CNN that microsoft will only close chat rooms and not messengers or hotmail.
