Microsoft is still attacking Linux whilst also taking control of the Linux Foundation (nothing funny about it, except maybe a meme or two)
Summary: Microsoft is still a patent blackmail operation; but as long as it's bribing OSI, Linux Foundation and others don't expect them to even talk about it... (Microsoft "loves Linux" as long as all the major OEMs and server hosts -- Amazon included -- essentially pay Microsoft for GNU/Linux as if Microsoft 'owns' it)
