@iska @m0xee @mangeurdenuage @Suiseiseki An entity like Microsoft simply has too much insurance, they are literally able to buy their way out of problems.

This would include the userbase completely flipping to using linux on end user production environments. Microsoft has already laid its hooks into various linux projects.

I've been about the freedom and privacy thing, but its highly inconvenient for the average person - "who has nothing to hide" It's easy for them to ask the 'why' which concludes with 'idgaf.'

In a way, I do envy Russians - M$ has been forced to completely sever services which now forces all Russians to become acquainted with Linux.
