Summary: What’s left of the media does an awful job covering technology topics; heck, a lot of what’s left takes bribes from Microsoft (even admitting that out in the open), so bias seems to be the last remaining business model
TODAY’S video is longer than usual because it covers a lot of ground, ranging from deliberate distortion of narratives by Microsoft-sponsored media (e.g. [1, 2]) to outright sinister lies. What we see is yet more Microsoft propaganda looking to distract from Azure getting totally cracked, citing Microsoft like the hero and the champion of security. The way we see it, this is an attempt to distract from Microsoft allowing anybody out there to crack Azure. The same happened in high-profile universities lately.
“The way we see it, this is an attempt to distract from Microsoft allowing anybody out there to crack Azure.”
“Lots of schools,” as one reader pit it, “from college to K-12 are getting hit by the real TCO of Windows, but the media is complicit in hiding that and misdirecting the blame.”
In addition to that I speak about how the media helps Microsoft attack both copyleft and copyright (only where it suits Microsoft), both with textual content and code. And while Bill Gates pollutes the planet like no other person (same for Microsoft and Windows, which contribute a lot to waste and energy consumption) he’s hailed as a flag bearer.
“The video above covers about 10 different aspects of the media deception.”
The media is failing to explain very simple things in very simple ways. It’s not even media, it’s more like Microsoft propaganda and while Microsoft’s go-to decoy (“HEY HI”) crashes and burns all we get is this “clickbait title,” as a reader put it, “used to cover for plagiarism and try to make the latter acceptable.”

The video above covers about 10 different aspects of the media deception. There’s much more that could be covered, but this will do for this weekend. █
