- robertlagrant 6y agoYes. Microsoft wasn't automatically bad for the web because they were dominant. They were bad because they were a closed process, and soon after they won the browser wars they closed the Internet Explorer team, allowing no further progress to be made. Without the Mozilla team creating a credible, Windows-based rival, and subsequently Google creating Chrome, the Web would look really different today.
