Good. companies should pay for their hubris in revenue and it should actively harm the brand they represent if and when they begin refusing to listen to customers and instead capriciously act against their interests. Thats how capitalism works. good product = money, bad product = no company. instead what we have in 2024 is a walking-dead of radioactive money golems on government life support through various federal contracts, siphoning profit from corporations by rent-seeking cloud products and racketeering licenses for services we've been able to provide in open source software for about thirty years. Cold shower incoming but Microsoft has been a roaring dumpster fire of miserable products for 25 years now. Azure is a hastily constructed dog food factory powered by Office subscriptions, email users and XBox services thats slow featureless and expensive. Windows is a KGB agent who randomly resets your browser to his bosses favourite and makes you buy new hardware. Everything inbetween is just filler from this company that hasnt had a win since word processing.
