So someone set 0xB16B00B5 as the guest ID in the hyper-v code in the Linux kernel, and some other people got offended and asked Microsoft to change it. I don't see the problem, I don't know how someone could be offended because of this. And as Paule Bolle says [1], it can be changed without breaking anything. The only serious thing that comes to mind about this is the MS Trustworthy Computing initiative, but I don't think it has anything to say here.
