Microsoft Weaponises (and Further Spreads) Racism to Distract From Its Own Incompetence (and 'Five Eyes' Collusion for Back Door Access)

Video download link



Summary: Racist Microsoft is at it again; we're meant to think that China is evil for doing exactly what the United States has been doing but more importantly we're told not to blame Microsoft for shoddy code and back doors (classic blame-shifting tactics and overt distortion of facts, as we saw in the wake of SolarWinds backdoors)

THE companies that dominate the media (and let's face it, tech oligarchs literally buy more and more of the media over time) think they can get away with collusions for back doors if only they keep saying "privacy" and pay publishers to print misleading puff pieces. They do this time after time, hoping people will forget programs such as PRISM [1], wherein Microsoft (the first company in the program) gave the NSA access to all E-mail [2-5].



"Apparently, to Microsoft, it's perfectly fine when 'Five Eyes' agencies read all the mail; when (allegedly) China does it, in effect taking over Windows machines with back doors in them, all blame should be shifted to China."Microsoft-connected sites are now being cited [6], telling us that "UNIX" and "Linux" (or some companies that compete viciously against Microsoft) are to blame for Microsoft sending malware their way [7], but more outrageously the media is today (or this week) helping Microsoft deflect/spin a major blunder/scandal [8,9]. Instead of blaming back doors (insecurity by design and intention) or technical incompetence they want us all to blame supposedly Chinese actors (no proof provided for such an attribution), who are merely unauthorised parties taking advantage either of back doors or bad quality code. Apparently, to Microsoft, it's perfectly fine when 'Five Eyes' agencies read all the mail; when (allegedly) China does it, in effect taking over Windows machines with back doors in them, all blame should be shifted to China.

Trump MicrosoftThese xenophobic if not racist tactics from Microsoft jibe very well with the company's special relationship with Donald Trump, who helped enrich Bill Gates, gave Microsoft US taxpayers' money, rigged a procurement process (Pentagon/JEDI) in Microsoft's favour, and wanted to give TikTok (a Chinese company) as a gift to Microsoft by blackmail tactics which are likely illegal (an abuse of authority). He did this while Microsoft was laying off lots of workers (because it's a failing company).
