Microsoft is a huge liability. They've forced companies and home PC users to be needlessly dependent on their cloud services to be able to do just about anything. They own the hugely popular GitHub and NPM developer platforms, and indirectly control other developer platforms through GitHub integrations. They're one of the major cloud service providers. They have a system that forces home and small business PCs all over the world to execute arbitrary code. They've been replacing their developers with incompetent AI systems. A major Apple or Google attack has the potential to break nearly all mobile devices, but a major Microsoft attack could cripple businesses everywhere.

Facebook and Palantir on the other hand could just disappear off the internet and we'd be better off.

X. Surely X is a Tech company. Tesla too. They are as much tech as automobile.

I concur, please levea the big tech alone, they are doing so much good for the world, cogh cogh, I meant for shareholders.

There'll be like two actual Americans there, but the rest of the workforce won't explain it to them because they're sick of everything being compared to "back home" all the time.

Also Americans: "Move?! You fascist! I'm tired of being harrassed by the fitness movement! I have the Constitutionally-protected right to sit and remain passive, you woke Communist Socialist!"

Interesting that they put their data centers near civilians population. Wouldn't that make them human shields?

I thought they were talking about cyber attacks, which honestly would put much more pressure on the US government I think.

That could be a huge double edged sword.

On the one hand less propaganda, on the other less documentation.

Microsoft has offices in Qatar, Dubai, SA, Bahrain, Oman, Kuwait, and more I'm sure. Oracle also has offices across the region.

These come to mind, but there are many other companies I'm sure.

it is considered rude to show ai slop to other humans

Well all but about 30k of them

No more water for you for the rest of the week

they just cut 30k employees, freeing up money for more data-centers.

Probably ask them to stand in front of the building.

they seem to be doing a good job in the middle east, targeting other ME countries had made them question thier reliability form the USA, they saw no protection/or retribution against IRan once thier missles start targeting oil infrastructure.
