Banning Former Microsoft Employees Who Complain About Microsoft Lies, Abuses and Crimes



Truly the mindset of a "dangerous cult" which viciously attacks its critics/exposers

Windows Insider



Summary: The official account of Windows Insider is banning people whom it never even spoke to; this seems like a way of 'punishing' people who are not 'true believers' in Microsoft

Mitchel Lewis, a former Microsoft employee whose articles we've at times syndicated here, is no friend of Microsoft. He has evidence of crimes and he writes about various abuses.



"Achievement Unlocked?"

"Did he abuse them? Did he say something offensive? No."That's what he asked after he had found out about being blocked by Microsoft boosters.

And for what? The above account bans Microsoft critics, even former employees.

Did he abuse them? Did he say something offensive? No.

"I honestly don’t even recall tweeting at them," he laughed. "I’m flattered at this point..."

He sent us the screenshot. Was he also reported to Twitter for 'abuse'? The "bury brigade" mentality? Silence the messenger?

"Microsoft truly operates like a cult. It uses the same indoctrination and intimidation tactics."I've asked him: "Can you find and share the context leading up to it (the ban)?"

I've also checked Twitter to see history of interactions. I can't find any. I can see the contexts from my account, which is not banned (blocked) by Windows Insider. From all I can see and gather, the oversensitive people at Windows Insider could not bear the sight of Microsoft being criticised -- even by its own former employees -- to the point of simply blacklisting them. From what we've heard (testimonies from Mr. Lewis), this isn't limited to Windows Insider. Microsoft truly operates like a cult. It uses the same indoctrination and intimidation tactics.
