Outsourcing Big Brother

Start thinking about which company will be hosting all that TIA data on your personal lives, and you can see why Microsoft is not your biggest enemy by a long shot!"

  1. Ok, please explain to me. by bmetzler · · Score: 3, Insightful

    On one hand, we have Microsoft, a company that breaks the law, is found guilty, and gets off scot-free. On the other hand, we have a company that offers a service that doesn't break the law to other companies who use that service to provide you, the customer, even better service.

    Now, why should I view a company that offers a legitemite service as a bigger enemy then a company that breaks the law?
