# 4 , of course is that Microsoft has already showed their source code to the governments of many countries including the US government, in part to allay security fears about "secret Windows back doors".

China has an active electronic warfare program against us, and many Windows exploits have been traced back to China since Microsoft gave them the source code. Microsoft has compromised the national security of the United States and made the world more unsafe for everyone. It is the height of irresponsibility.

Microsoft also registered and activated server software for the Taliban regime, in direct violation of U.S. law.

If Hitler was around today, Microsoft would be selling their wares to him too.

I note that a lot of software is prohibited from export by us common civilians yet indeed Gates licensed ChiCom with munitions-level stuff. Scary and very interesting in the One World Order scenarios and in considering Gog/Magog of the Book of Revelation.

Much of the Gates Foundation grants has gone to left-leaning stuff including pro-abortion causes. Much of MS's antitrust settlements have been paid "in kind" using published, obsolete software. As re: the foundation, I am on a deadline/all-nighter but opensecrets.org or freshmeat.org should be a good source to verify this.

You keep getting more hysterical by the minute don't you?
You gotta quit foaming at the mouth and start talking some sense for a change.

# 1, more Windows exploits have been carried out in the United States bt far more than any exploits from China.
Its not even close.

# 2, Windows source code was given to a very very select, very high level' very responsible members of the Chinese government.
Its not been handed over to Chinese hackers.
Please show me some Windows exploits carried out by the members of the Chinese government with access to Microsoft source code will you?

# 3, Microsoft source code has very little to do with American national security.
Knowing the sot=rce code of Microsoft Office or Windows is not the way for the Chinese or anyone else to win a war against the United States..
Meanwhile anyone (including malicious hackers and outlaw countries like Iran) have free access to the open source code like Linux .
I think you should be more worried about open source ceode than Microsoft source code shown to foreign governments under the tightest security and conditions.

# 4, Microsoft is far more responsible than most firms on the planet.
Even the anti-Amerivcan Financial Times has Microsoft ranked as either the most or the next most admired company on the planet.

"Microsoft also registered and activated server software for the Taliban regime, in direct violation of U.S. law. "

LMAO!
Excuse me while I laugh, will you?
The Taliban also used Toyota pickups to mount their machine guns on (so go sue Toyota), Mercedes cars for their top officials (sue Mrcedes too ), PC's with Intel and AMD processors in them, lots of Macs (sure CRAPPLE LOL) etc etc.
Anyone can buy a PC with Windows installed anywhere they want.
Heck I sent lots of Windows PC's to Africa in the past 10 years alone that I bought in Europe.
The American government was the biggest donor of aid to the Taliban> Windows PC's were probably included in some of the aid to hospitals and schools.

You gotta do better than that.

"If Hitler was around today, Microsoft would be selling their wares to him too"


Oh boy.
Now you have completely flipped.
How do I put it delicately? You are not normal.
Your statements keep getting more bizarre by the minute.
Are you sure you are not on something?
You sure sounding more insane with every statement you make.

Chinese X Focus is to blame for posting unpatched exploits on the net, not Microsoft. China has all US code, but is specifically interested in Linux, which they not only get to see, but get to modify and legally use on their supercomputers for free.

Microsoft also registered and activated server software for the Taliban regime, in direct violation of U.S. law.

You never had any proof it was registered, that I recall. Do you have it yet, or are you still pushing an unproven accusation as fact?

That was the IBM corporation. Microsoft wasn't around.
