Microsoft PR: Looking Under The Hood

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the leave-that-tracking-info-in-remember dept.

mtr writes "An interesting article uncovering some embarassing and amusing PR practices of our friendly software giant had been recently published by Michael Zalewski. The author recovered change tracking information from all the DOCs published on microsoft.com, and came up with something to cheer you up. It's funny when it happens to others - but even better if it fires back on themselves. Read the full story here."

    You are the FIRST OBVIOUS DEBIAN ZEALOT to bring up debian in a story that has nothing to do with debian! We are quite used to it by now here at slashdot. Your reward for your completly pointless, offtopic debian post is to be modded up! That's RIGHT! Even though your post is completley off-topics, the debian zealot moderators will surely feel the need to mod your completely pointless, and totally unfunny post up.

    THIS is why people hate debian users. But please, keep finding ways to bring up the most annoying distro with the most annoying userbase.

    They have no more right to have them removed than a novelist has to have a uncomplimentary book review removed.

    This wouldn't be the first time a large company sued someone under this circumstance. And how many times did the individual being sued settle out of court? More often than not.
