Microsoft Windows Puts Recyclers Like Eric Lundgren in Prison and Patients Six Feet Under the Ground

Summary: Eric Lundgren's story will hopefully be explained in meticulous details now that he is out of jail (for the non-crime which is recycling unused PCs); we have another important series on the way, but it can take more time and preparation (for source protection and impact)

FOLLOWING our informal chat with Eric Lundgren (information gathering in an informal setting) we're preparing for the possibility of in-depth analysis of his case, hopefully with legal papers showing his ordeals and Microsoft's defamation of his character. Separately, we're preparing a series on Microsoft's accountability for deaths of many people. For the latter series we need to perform a lot of anonymisation. This means it can take a while longer to commence. Either way, we have some important stories on the way, so stay tuned.
