Terms of Service (TOS) Under Scrutiny - Part XII - Microsoft's LinkedIn Grants Itself Licence for Plagiarism, Distortion of Facts
A couple of days ago we finished writing about biometrics inside stores, i.e. physically. Over the next few days we'll look at something a little different, namely Terms of Service online.
Some time ago a reader told us that "Bruce Perens recently mentioned LinkedIn TOS so... I'll be working up that one next."
Here it is in a nutshell:
As a reminder, a Microsoft employee changed the subject and caused a lot of Web panic over "Linux" when the issue was social engineering in Microsoft GitHub (proprietary) impacting a package not connected to Linux. He did so only days before a damning report about Microsoft security breaches.
What we have here is Microsoft plagiarising and twisting the words of people, then calling it "intelligence". Do we trust Microsoft to do this? █
