    The last hope will be with browser makers: no standard gets supported if code isn't written

    You mean other than the fact that he's the founder and director of the W3C?

    Or the more plausible option: his business was overhyped and simply crash and burned due to excessive burn rates without the revenue to back it up.

  4. What exactly is clickbait? His company is imploding despite being overhyped and the next Jesus corporation.

    And I'm supposed to believe that's a common use case why? The vast majority of people use laptops and desktops and have been formatted as NTFS by default since the windows XP days.

    But 99% or more are using NTFS on Windows. Other than a couple of neckbeards everyone else switched to NTFS when hard drives grew past 32GB.

    What does Windows 10 have to do with anything? 99% of people have been using NTFS for more than a decade. Why would you possible format hard drives with 100s of GB or multi-terabyte as FAT32?

  10. You think they should announce to the world all the vulnerabilities they've found so those means can be closed?

    Yes, because we all become less safe when they are kept secret. Unless you're dumb to think only the US can find the vulnerabilities.

    Its just plain dumb from Microsoft to actually NOT develop a Linux or Mac client.

    They have a Mac, iOS and Android clients so that they cover 99% of users that matter.
