    If Microsoft had any ethical standards they wouldn’t be American.

    Ah, so there’s so much evidence that denial is now impossible, and its time to start sacrificing people.

    Oh please implode faster Microsoft, you are so immensely horrible in so many ways.

    It’s a lie. Brad smith lied last year when they said they stopped direct support, and they’re lying now.

      Seriously. When unit 8200 comes to you and asks to use your service, it should be pretty obvious what it’s for. It’d be like feigning ignorance after creating something specifically for the NSA.

    Mhm. And despite their pledge to investigate, Microslop fired four of its employees pointing it out to them. https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/society-equity/microsoft-fires-four-workers-on-site-protests-over-companys-ties-israel-2025-08-29/

    Clearly a violation and they should upgrade Azure+ for that functionality.

    MS has really been starting to whistle another tune lately. Post-Anthropic leak, post-econimic market backing Zionism; just to name a couple.

    It’s almost like, after 18 months of relentless PR onslaught, “Oh, we should adjust our business model before it’s too late” as we sit on the precipice of “too late”.
