roy_1I hardly look at that site anymore. It's another example of a communications channel that was infiltrated and subverted by Microsoft.Oct 02 08:05
roy_1Microsoft attaches itself like a cancer to everything cool in tech through their "Evangelism is War" way of life. Every one to many communications channel, OEM and vendor is targeted for conversion to complete Microsoft control or destruction. Representatives pretend to be members of the targeted group while spying and making trouble. They always aim for levers of control to eliminate opposition and further the conversion. A group only has Oct 02 08:05
roy_1to be infiltrated by a single Microsoft person for the process to begin. The Microsoft representatives will consume more and more resources until what's left of the disfigured group quits in disgust. The converted group pretends still be independent so that new, distant sites can be corrupted and ruined.Oct 02 08:05
