I don't see what that has to do with security. Microsoft could be both monopolistic and security-focused.
- Jedd 3y agoI'm suggesting that if Bill sends an internal-to-Microsoft email that says 'we're now 100% focused on security and will be forever', that this may not be a position statement we could 100% rely on to accurately describe the subsequent twenty+ years. Nor, obviously, should we assume that email represented a sincere, persistent, commitment to fundamental change of the way the company operates -- conversely, that there were no cynical elements of propaganda / marketing to that action.
