Corporations are guests in society. They have rights and protections... AND responsibilities to act within the law.
Just as each of us faces penalties if we break the law, so too must Microsoft. If they faced NO penalty, then the neighborhood bully will then be really out of control!
If a competitor didn't like their business tactics and decided to enact non-legal remedies to keep Microsoft from doing bad things, MS would run and cry and look to the government for protections. They bombed us and that's illegal! (they would rant and plead)
Well, guess what? You Microsoft whom have broken the law must now face the music. Judgement time is approaching and you will indeed deserve all and more you get for your sickening tactics and behavior. I'll cry for you when you cry for those YOU have destroyed by not playing fair and legally.
Just like people... yes, real human beings, are destroyed by bullies and criminals, who prey on the weak, you too do to businesses and customers whom have long suffered under your tyranny. You ease your thin conscience with your filthy bank account and stock options, but your are corrupt and ugly, vile, and now want sympathy after you have for so long run wild pissing on everyone who didn't have the power to be immune to your ugly ugly (and yes! illegal) ways?
Break them up! Make them face each other in the snake pit that is their tactics! Those businesses that got in bed with microsoft get what they deserve for trying to profit from illegal gotten gains. Break them up into dozens of pieces! So much easier to kill the demon spawn one by one then face all of hell's creation all at once.
You use legal tactics and fine print and EULAs and exclusivities, etc etc etc for your il-gotten gains and you think anyone should have sympathy when you have been shown by that same legal system you manipulate to be a BAD corporate citizen? You will deserve every little bit of punishment you get and more. You are a parasite and the host has gotten really tired of you. Be gone!

I hope they get everything they have coming to them.
