They need to get closer, first…

Summary: Looking at leaked E-mails from around the time Microsoft used Cyanogen as a ‘proxy’, we’re finding some stunning admissions or speculation about the real motivations
THE “LOVE” Microsoft has to give (or at least offer) is an insult to one’s intelligence. Look no further than Microsoft’s rogue track record when it comes to partnerships.
Sheltered deep inside leaks from Hacking Team (e.g. [1, 2, 3]) was this admission about a topic we covered a lot back then (around half a decade ago). Cyanogen didn’t fold (so far) because Microsoft had invested in it and was connected to it in several ways, staff included. It was a sabotage attempt. This was one among several attempts to undermine Android (with Linux kernel), years after Android’s market share already exceeded Windows market share, greatly weakening Microsoft’s grip on computing and on people. Looking back at those leaks, one sees the words: “Yet another try by Microsoft, a twisted try doomed to fail? [ Alberto is laughing out loud, no doubt about it! ]”
“A kamikaze attack (神風) is basically the military standard of suicide bombing (bombers equipped with expensive gear like preloaded planes), the type of mindset Microsoft’s sociopaths wouldn’t be hesitant to adopt if it helps the cult.”Mr. Cornelli replied: “It looks like a kamikaze attack, just to act the bully in the google playground. :)”
