Default msn chat closing

if any of you havent heard (and everyone on the net has probably heard it already), msn uk is closing its chat rooms, and they say its to stop paedophiles grooming kids.
all the tabloids are saying "yes this is good, paedophiles are evil, the internet is evil" etc... but the broadsheets are more sceptical and saying "hang on, isnt this a publicity stunt or something?"
im beginning to think its more of a publicity stunt than to protect kids, cos apparantly msn is going to try and push its messenger software more, and if the chat rooms close then ppl will have to use msn messenger. also ive heard a rumour that the day after the chat rooms close, msn will block aol's chat software. doesnt that seem like a bit too much coincidence and like they really are pushing us to use msn messenger?
