You've got to know where the review takes place as well. I'd be fairly confident it remained in China and not the U.S., and this is just another example of what may happen when doing business in China. I know that the cool thing to do is vilify Microsoft, but I think they are part victim here. Now that corporate is aware of the issue, they are working to resolve it. Plurk should be happy for the publicity they received out of this (I'm sure they were high-fiving around the office when it was discovered).
- julio_the_squid 17y agoApparently, the cool thing to do is now to defend Microsoft, actually, even in the face of ridiculous transgressions and clear unlawful and unethical behavior. I can't believe that people are giving them a pass on this 'oh, a 3rd party developer did everything and it was all their fault!' excuse. Somehow I doubt that Plurk was elated to find that a giant corporation had thoroughly imitated their site. Probably, once they saw that the exact code had been lifted,it was a relief, though, as they knew that couldn't stand.
