Microsoft Uses NASA and Swine Flu to Advance Own Agenda
Summary: NASA enables Microsoft to exclude GNU/Linux users from accessing data they paid for; Microsoft uses swine flu to promote itself, rather than leave it for states to handle
Microsoft gains increased possession of national assets funded by taxpayers, based on this new report.
Microsoft, meanwhile, has a deal with NASA under which more than 100 terabytes of data will be available through the Microsoft Worldwide Telescope.
Why is NASA handing over public data to a company which was sued by the United States government and found guilty? Need it be added that Microsoft uses this as an opportunity to block GNU/Linux users?
And speaking of abuse of this kind, Microsoft has moved on from using swine flu to market its brand to kids. The same shameless promotion is now targeting adults [1, 2, 3]. We have already shown how Microsoft uses AIDS to promote Windows Vista [1, 2] while Bill Gates uses malaria to attack GNU/Linux. There is so much about the role of drugs which most people cannot grasp due to scarcity of information [1, 2, 3]. We will revisit this in a later post about patents. █
