Speak Forcefully

More Reasons For Me To Hate Microsoft

As if I didn't have enough already, turns out Microsoft funds: American Enterprise Institute, the Center for Strategic and International Studies, the Heritage Foundation and the Cato Institute - to name just a few. Seems Microsoft keeps some of the same company as Rev. Moon.

If you follow radical concepts like freedom and liberty, or perhaps use Linux, then you'll know who these guys are right away: Alexis de Tocqueville Institution - another misnamed "think tank" funded by Microsoft.

Groklaw exposed these guys last year, but PJ might have to fire up the pen again and remind some new readers about the slime bags.

It's weird watching Microsoft react and fight the way it does against Linux. I've yet to figure out why Bill Gates and his minions engage in so much astroturfing. I can't believe they worry about competing against something like this: Ubuntu Linux
