During the nineties, plenty of people thought Microsoft did plenty of evil things. Truly evil things, so I'm not sure the argument that Microsoft is incompetent, instead of evil, is very persusasive.
An outsider often sees evil where an insider sees good reasons.
- insertnickname 9y agoHe didn't say that Microsoft had never done anything evil, he said they hadn't done anything evil while he was at Microsoft. In fact, he said this: This is evil. This is horrifying. This is the kind of stuff Microsoft did in the 90s that made everyone hate it so much they still have to fight against the repercussions of decisions made two decades ago because of the sheer amount of damage they did and lives they ruined.
