Why do you hate Microsoft?

I’m helping a friend of mine writing a long essay exposing the abusive, monopolistic and anti-consumer practices of Microsoft. First, we’ve created some sort of table of contents with the different topics we want to cover and now we’re gathering sources for each of these topics.

Microsoft is a huge corporation with a big influence on media and although if you dig enough you can find useful sources, they’ve also made an extremely good job at hiding bad press from search engines.

We’ve scrolled through Hacker News, other links aggregators and sites like TechRights and we’ve found a good amount of articles against Microsoft. But we’re sure there has to be more. So that’s kinda why we’re asking.

Bullet points for the sections we’ve thought of (suggestions are welcome too):

* The Microsoft Monopoly
		* Microsoft and the web
				* Internet Explorer
				* Microsoft Edge
		* Microsoft Windows Monopoly
		* Microsoft and the Governments
				* Education
				* Healthcare
		* Microsoft Gaming Empire
* Windows Backdoors (not sure where this section belongs)
		* Work with the NSA
* Microsoft loves Open Source (microsoft infiltration in foss)
		* Microsoft and the OSI
		* Github
				* Github Copilot
		* VSCode
		* War on GPL
		* Microsoft loves Linux and BSD?
		* Embrace, extend, extinguish
* Our lord, Bill Gates
		* The media empire
				* Twitter censorship
		* Bill Gates the philanthropist
				* Big Pharma
		* Bill and Jeffrey Epstein
