Summary: Ziff Davis, a supposedly objective publisher, is publicly promoting Microsoft products for the company's dollars
IT IS NEITHER secret nor news that Ziff Davis is in Microsoft's pocket. We wrote about this a month ago. There are many more examples we could give (e.g. its publication eWeek [1, 2, 3]), but here is a brand new example that a reader sent to us.
See that last line. This is sent as a newsletter to many people and the take-home message is that Windows Vista is a must for security, even though it's provably terrible for security.
Isn't it funny that after the "LF" (misusing the brand "Linux") flooded the Web with press releases and fake articles (that it had paid for) it now gets some LLM slop doing the same?
Suffice to say, if some people related to our professional field attack women and get arrested for it, then there's nothing immoral about relaying this information

Oh, Microsoft's.
E.T. can now phone home with a little more privacy.
