New "US Editor for The Register" is 80% Microsoft and Windows

posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 06, 2025

The Register MS:

Avram Piltch has served as US editor for The Register since July 2025. In 25 years of tech editorial work, he has served as everything from a writer to an editor to an Editor-in-Chief, most recently for Tom's Hardware. After he's logged off, you'll find Avram custom-building PCs, 3D printing trinkets, experimenting with Raspberry Pi, or programming browser extensions.

Since joining The Register MS last month, the "US editor for The Register" has published 10 articles. Only 20% of them (see blue above) are not Microsoft. The chief editor for The Register is a Microsofter [1, 2] and moreover they've brought back Microsoft Tim.

Instead of doing proper journalism, e.g. pointing out Microsoft's absurd debt and deeply illogical "value", they typically just treat Microsoft like the "Holy Grail" of "IT".
