Don't worry, in 15 years they will use all the money they gained doing this, and start acting well again. Better even.
And everybody will forgive, and people will defend them on HN for being redeemed, and they will be alright.
That's been the trend.
- BLKNSLVR 6y agoMicrosoft only seem to be acting well again because they're in the company of entities acting worse. Google will have to be specifically not leading the charge, which may well be the case in 15 years. Google will be hiding behind a shield of some other companies worse behaviour in order to seem to be behaving well. Windows is still going backwards in terms of hostility to users.

- cirno 6y agoTruly, I don't know how one can look at Windows 10 and think Microsoft has in any way improved: the entire OS spies on you at every corner now, bloatware automatically installs in the background, updates are installed without your consent, and more.
