--Brad Silverberg, Microsoft

Summary: Microsoft is no ordinary company; exposing it is like dealing with the Mafia or some drug cartel in Mexico, but we're able to publish truths about Microsoft nonetheless (their notorious intimidation and silencing attempts have always failed against us)

THE crimes of Microsoft are well known, but some are better known than others (the bribery epidemic for instance). Some time later this month or next month we plan to publish truly damning material -- a string of internal communications which show a conspiracy to harm and to grossly violate the law.

"...Microsoft wants us to have blind faith in this nebulous concept of "new Microsoft" (same as the old Microsoft)."Microsoft is hardly the company which needs 'exposing'; people everywhere know it's run by criminals, founded by at least one criminal (the other is a dead patent troll), and its notoriety is well earned.

Censoring Techrights is very difficult; Microsoft is used to sending threats to platforms/publishers, to people's bosses (they've tried this with my boss as well, having found his contact details) and they're basically acting like a bunch of gangsters. Because that's just what they are. If they cannot bribe, they will bully and bully and bribe some more (even bribing one's bosses for leverage). It's good to produce more and more evidence of it; Microsoft wants us to have blind faith in this nebulous concept of "new Microsoft" (same as the old Microsoft). Microsoft should be synonymous with criminal behaviour.

Stay tuned. ⬆
