Microsoft Helps Stop Child Porn

Microsoft doesn't always have a great life in my blog - I often criticise their initiatives.

Nevertheless, I acknowledge their moves and know that they are coming back and back with their products until it works. I once called them an amazing company and they are one - how else could they stay atop the game in such competitive markets. Well, in many markets, they are NOT number one, contrary to beliefs, and they actually struggle in some.

Anyway, their new initiative is worth the praise.

"Microsoft has joined international law enforcement agencies today to unveil a software that allows police agencies worldwide to share information for tracking online child pornographers."

And apparantly, the system is quite successful, contrasting their usual initiatives and launches (I just had to say that!!): "The new tracking system has already resulted in the November 2004 arrest of one alleged Toronto child pornographer. He was identified and targeted during beta testing of the computerized database and investigation system."

Keep it moving, Microsoft!
