<i>Godwin&#x27;s Law warning</i><p>I find more ridiculous the statement &quot;we will never forgive Microsoft&quot; than saying &quot;we will never forgive Germany&quot;.<p>They&#x27;re a company, not a charity, they&#x27;re in the business of making money, and if making money implies using &quot;dirty tactics&quot; such as saying phone manufacturers &quot;bundle Office in your phones or we will use our patents against you&quot; it will certainly happen regardless of which company we&#x27;re talking about.<p>Also, you should not be angered at Microsoft for collaborating with the NSA, but be angered at America for forcing companies to collaborate with the NSA. If you were in the position of Microsoft would you reject and risk loosing your company? Don&#x27;t be ridiculous! If Apple is playing to be the victim right now, is because it&#x27;s more profitable for them after the public outrage that followed Snowden&#x27;s revelations.<p>There is a real world outside the Free Software bubble, a real world where companies struggle to survive and any means to survive, even at the expense of the competition, will certainly happen.
