- denton-scratch 2y agoYou missed the point: what Suleyman was saying is that content is freeware, provided the publisher doesn't have a well-staffed legal department. Microsoft does have that, so what they publish isn't freeware. This is an attitude that has run in Microsoft's veins since the start; they've always been scofflaws, they've always been in the business of stealing other people's inventions. For Microsoft, laws are for protecting their moat. Frankly, I'm astonished that Suleyman said this on the record.
