I think the problem is that it takes additional work to figure out what needs to be fixed (especially since the company that has reused your code might be trying to obscure the fact). It's not reasonable to expect the original author to do that work, on behalf of a party that appears to be infringing on their licence.
Even if you want MS to get this fixed and make a success of it (as I very much do) it's clearly their responsibility to figure out the correct licensing.
