So a new CEO and the established culture just automatically changes? It’s not just that MSFT did what they did, but they established a culture that was cool with it and even came up with the ideas. How do we know they are no longer doing that? It’s not like they openly admitted to what they did in the 1990s...

They’ve open sourced so many of their Crown Jewels, put SQL server on Linux. I mean this stuff gets at the core and soul of what was Microsoft. The burden of proof is in the accusers that claim they haven’t changed a bit. Where’s the proof that they’re the same Microsoft?

  What crown jewels are these? Windows? Office? Edge? They're trying, they see the writing on the wall, it's foolish to not see that they're trying. I think it would be equally foolish to just whitewash away the sins of the past.
