Soon in #techrights we'll reveal some of the story behind #microsoft #github #npm ... the #pentagon contractors are taking over the whole "supply chain"... at TAXPAYERS' expense? http://techrights.org/2022/02/04/the-united-states-government-should-quit-bailing-out-microsoft-at-taxpayers-expense/

Contrary to a deliberately-misleading media narrative, Microsoft isn’t succeeding (except at graft, or taking money from the public purse) but is exacerbating inequality by taking away from the poor to sustain its own bodyweight

The EPO‘s fake chief (Josef) has done absolutely nothing to hold Benoît Battistelli accountable and keep António Campinos honest; he’s more than complicit and he was recently rewarded for this complicity, along with his deputy, the 'Borg'
