Bill Gates Deposition: Rocking Like a Pigeon While Lying to Interrogators

Figure/chart below (on the right) published a month and a half ago; you too might/would be stressed if people like investigative journalists and Twitter users kept asking why you were so close to Jeffrey Epstein -- a fact that you're unable to deny

Bill Gates stress levelSummary: An immensely guilty and intensely stressed Bill Gates is confronted/interviewed by people who grill him about competition crimes he committed; people need to see the tapes to understand just how far he'd go to lie, mislead, obfuscate, or turn aggressive on interrogators (because it's easier than answering simple questions honestly)

BILL GATES knows these tapes and remembers the deposition very well. Maybe not clearly enough to recall the questions, but it likely traumatised him a little. People don't forget such things. For years he fought hard to ensure it'll never happen again, so he created a fake 'charity' and hired lots of lobbyists (more than any other company, even oil giants). In the first part, second part, third part, and fourth part we saw an increasingly erratic man. Then, last night's publication of some transcripts showed the lying, the evasive answers/evasion tactics, the false denials etc. It didn't go well, did it? It's hard to lie when you're being presented with hard evidence refuting the lies... and right there on the spot.



"It's hard to lie when you're being presented with hard evidence refuting the lies... and right there on the spot."Our interrogation (for lack of a better word) of this historic record won't end with the dozen parts (tapes). "In regards to IBM," an associate of ours recalled, "remember that the only reason Bill got a the MS-DOS monopoly was that IBM was being punished as a result of anti-trust violations. [See "IBM Signs A Deal With The Devil"] It had to choose either hardware or software and chose hardware. Bill's mom set them up with Tim Paterson's QDOS, giving Bill an instant monopoly. [See the recent article "How Bill Gates' mother influenced the success of Microsoft" or an older article from The Register, aptly entitled "Bill Gates, Harry Evans and the smearing of a computer legend" because they still try to distort history and smear past opponents who cannot defend themselves because they're dead.] Anti-trust had real teeth back then. It was little Bush that put an end to curbing monopoly abuse. Microsoft was about to get broken up. Also, in the 1980s, if you wanted to get anyone in IT hopping mad and cussing, all you had to do was mention IBM. Bill inherited all of their dirty tricks before refining them further and making new ones. One of the more frustrating ones was when IBM sales went two steps over your head to the boss' boss. The worst part about that was often enough to be profitable the boss' boss sided with IBM and the sale was closed at the expense of the employee(s) underneath. IIRC, the removal of anti-trust enforcement also affects Oracle. Larry Ellison bought InnoDB (the back-end) as a test [1, 2] after that to test the waters. When he found that he could do what he wanted with impunity, he did. Bill's antics fucked the industry badly and by extension the rest of the business world since it all runs on ICT now."

Without further ado, here's the Bill Gates deposition, part 5:

We expect that part 6 will be ready some time tomorrow morning.
