The comment [1] sent to us for assessment deals with topics we've covered here for many years [2][3], so equipped with credible reports -- including from high-level insiders -- we're responding to overt revisionism regarding Microsoft, Elop, and Nokia.
Towards the end we also mention how many choose to forget what Microsoft has done to the likes of Nokia, Novell and many others (even Yahoo! this past decade) and instead treat Microsoft like it's not a danger anymore.

"That's the article with 12 mentions of Apple and one sheepish mention of Microsoft," told us one person in IRC this morning. "Still the same," he said. "FSF is basically Microsoft PR. They will bash everyone but Microsoft. Same situation with EFF. And Linux Foundation" (sponsored by Microsoft for nearly half a decade now). ⬆
