I know bill gates is iconic and stuff, but he's not actually running Microsoft, right now. Satya Nadella has been in charge since 2014.

    He has come out of retirement to act as the face of Microslop for various official events though, not least when all the techbro oligarchs kissed the asshole of Trump at an official dinner.

    So regardless he is still very much a stupid face to blame.

    Bill Gates has been a huge asshole right from the start. Microsoft really hasn't gotten more or less evil after gates, it just steadily has gone on on the same fucked up path.

    Microsoft is just marketing company that tries to paddle bullshit software that will try to steal from you at every moment. That isn't new, that had been like that from the moment they could. The sabotaging of consumers and competition basically has been a feature of day one. It's in their motto, the embrace, extend, extinguish.

    Switch to Linux. They actually deal with disclosure responsibly.

    Doing bug bounty for any corp should be an offense and must carry the ling chi penalty. The ultimate humiliation ritual.

    What does Gates have to do with this as of... a million years ago ? Blame Nadella and all the senior execs and engineers
