Microsoft can’t beat open source software by building their own reliable quality software, so they are going to try and beat open source in the court: Read More

What they don’t understand is that the people who contribute to these platforms aren’t motivated by money, nor are they motivated by business, they’re motivated by the love of what they do. Microsoft is on the way out, and this reminds me of another behemoth that is grasping at straws on the way out, the RIAA. People have often told me when the MS discussion comes up, watch out for MS, they will recover.

I just never thought they would go this route. They build shitty software for the most part, they should instead scrap what they have done and build off the open source communities. Kind of like a certain fruit company I am fond of. Just another nail in the casket for the company which had it all.
