Summary: In terms of layoffs [1], Microsoft has had a particularly tough year [2-14], but it has been distracting the public and misusing media connections (or its moles inside the media) to downplay things, to spin the layoffs as a positive thing, and sometimes shamelessly lie
THE Microsoft layoffs which were announced during summer (slow news, mostly between June and August) were spun as a good thing and sometimes covered up until sacked employees blew the whistle and used privacy-preserving software to communicate with journalists. Throughout 2020 we wrote a number of articles and memes about it. This is a roundup of them (as video). ⬆
