Summary: We take a closer look at layoffs then (in January) and now (in July). Back then it was 10,000+ in a month, then thousands more each month, now 1000+ in ONE WEEK (at least four times bigger than reported at first); does anyone keep a complete tally of how many people lost their job/contract at Microsoft? Are we at over 20,000 yet?

THE video above sums up my thoughts about July's Microsoft layoffs, which are perhaps in the thousands already (the month is not over yet). Microsoft is extremely evasive on this topic (leakers and whistleblowers are needed for real data) and Microsoft operatives in the mainstream media keep relaying fake numbers, not just for 2023 as a whole but also for this month in isolation.

"...Microsoft operatives in the mainstream media keep relaying fake numbers, not just for 2023 as a whole but also for this month in isolation."What goes on inside Microsoft? What goes on with the media? And what will all those liars (who last week said over 200+ employees had been laid off) have to say now? Will there be follow-up stories to correct what they wrote last week? As noted in the video above, 12 hours after the story refuting the lies there have been no further articles. Now that the mainstream media/tech news site is corroborating if not confirming that Microsoft laid off OVER ANOTHER THOUSAND PEOPLE last week Microsoft seems to have Googlebombed the news cycle with chaff and noise^*, perhaps trying to push that out of view/visibility. Microsoft sure is making a ton of noise today, but will that distract from the large scale of layoffs it "implemented" silently (and had been planning for months already^**)? IBM did the same two years ago. ⬆ ____ ^* One example of this noise is this "AI" chaff. The "AI" chaff, one might add, is marketing built from otherwise unutilised Azure data centers burning lots of expensive electricity at idle with few to no customers. Microsoft is failing and it suffers several simultaneous crises, hence mass layoffs all the time (including XBox and "AI" staff). For now it's trying to squeeze money out of prisoners... so as to balance the books, for the mass layoffs aren't sufficient.

^** Microsoft won't say the truth; it never does, but the media might mention the number of rounds of the layoffs, as we counted at least four so far this year. It's important to note that this is a recurring event, yet the media pretends it's all tied to January. It's not.
