    @linuxisevil Microsoft tends to provide stock options to their employees, this gives them more incentive to work 80 hours / week and contribute to the companies financial growth, and if they’ve retained those stocks, then they retain an interest.

      That doesn’t even matter. If he worked at Microsoft he probably has a Microsoft attitude. Also I’ve noticed that the older programmers share his sentiment.

      Still not buying it, even if he did it wouldn’t be anywhere near as strong as the cope from linux and open-source evangelists hearing how bad, crude, and insecure their development model is. Who make Microsoft look like saints by comparison on account of their criminal associations.

      But hey, if you don’t believe Dave, look no further than the XZ incident can’t really deny concrete proof so easily with conspiracy theories. Check and mate linux evengelist.

        You have no idea what you are talking about and nether does the Youtuber dude you linked to. This is the same guy who says Cloud strike was causes by a EU ruling. The ruling didn’t require Microsoft to give everyone full access. It just required that they don’t abuse there control of the OS to give themselves a unfair advantage. Another words, they need to give Zoom the same access as Teams to the OS.
