I don't believe Microsoft is necessarily "evil." But the amount of consolidation that is going on in the tech is really scary. Five American (yes it matters that they are all US-based, given the jingoistic direction the world is taking) companies; Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Apple and Amazon, wields an insane amount of power over the rest of the world.
I think we techies need to come up with democratic, free alternatives for these services. Something like GitHub but federated so that not a single party has to pay for all the bandwidth and server costs.
