Microsoft is under fire for threatening a security researcher with criminal investigation.

It's rare to see near-universal condemnation from the #infosec community, but #Microsoft threatening a #security #researcher has done it.

Microsoft is going to crash and burn soon, imho.

The world can no longer rely on American companies software, when #Trump may order Microsoft to deny access to a country, or worse, order backdoors in the software.

#France is showing #Windows the door, and replacing it with #Linux, for #DigitalSovereignty, #security and Billions of Euros in cost savings.

#India , known for its #jugaad ( frugality and innovation ) may soon follow suit. When that happens, the center of gravity shifts towards #FreeSoftware and the game changes.

#MSFT has seen the sharpest declines in its entire existence, this year.

We are in the Free Software world, approaching the time when, if you say, "I have a computer program you can use, but I won't show you the source code, and you have to pay me for it, and you can only use it on my terms, and you have to pay for upgrades, and I can declare your computer obsolete and make you buy another if I decide.", you will be laughed out of town.

France Shows Windows the Door!
≠========{

The Government of France has launched a sweeping initiative to switch from Windows to Linux. This move will save France, Billions of Euros each year, improve security, and move towards Sovereignty.

India should follow this excellent example.

Microsoft ( MSFT ) is expected to be a in a death spiral, as more and more countries decide to save money.
