The Source has just found this little blooper which suggests that Novell has ghostwriters. We captured more evidence of this before, about 2 years ago. Some of the executives of Novell either do not write their posts or do not write them alone (or use the assistance of technical people to run their blogs, by proxy so to speak). Bill Gates' latest PR charades on the Web are pretty much the same. It's all marketing and part of the branding of "Bill Gates", whose crimes the PR effort is trying to erase with the help of irresponsible reporters. ⬆

Ghostwriting is indeed controversial and AFRIK far from a new topic. If you do a Google search on "ghostwritten blogs", you can find a lot of articles about it.

First link is now broken and second one now works, so Novell execs wasn't ghostwriting.
In our experience, GNOME is so malicious - some elements of it in particular - that it would launch multiple simultaneous SLAPP campaigns not only against journalists but also their spouses
Remember all this when the media says that Microsoft became like 10 times more valuable in those 15 years (from 400 billion to 4,000 billion in alleged "worth")
In the future I'll be able to tell how, when dealing with SLAPPs from Microsofters, their Microsoft services failed me and sometimes even blocked my contacts
