Microsoft is such a weird company these days. So many contradictory patterns across its arms that it is hard to characterize it as having a singular corporate philosophy. On the one hand, you have windows which has moved more and more towards surveillance and users not really controlling/owning their own software...but then you have the moves towards embracing (and not extinguishing) open source interoperability, and now promoting DIY repairs on their hardware.
