History's Lesson: Microsoft Now Does to GNU/Linux What It Did to Java (Creating 'Schism' to 'Wrest Control')

We take a closer look at what Bill Gates admitted (under pressure, with 'smoking guns' to compel him into admission) regarding his rogue tactics

#Microsoft WeaSeL is NOT #gnu #linux but an ATTACK on GNU/Linux. #wsl #wsl2

With #wsl and #wsl2 #microsoft is trying to to to #gnu #linux what SCO did with UNIX. Of course Microsoft isn't attacking the REAL GNU/Linux distros DIRECTLY. When people trust you they tell you stories... http://techrights.org/2020/11/19/patent-trolling-dolby/

Dolby Patents Are Being Used in Patent-Trolling Activity Against GNU/Linux, But Dolby is Said to Be a GPL Violator

Dolby's serial litigation strategy seems to have come into conflict with Free-as-in-freedom software -- the very same software Dolby is happy to exploit without complying with the copyleft licence

Today in #phoronix ... more #WSL / #WSL2 junk. #microsoft loves Michael. More freebies soon...

Promoting WSL spam for "Linux" is like promoting counterfeit Adidas to help Adidas, the company. #wsl and #wsl2 are NOT #gnu #linux but ATTACKS on GNU/Linux. It's very simple to understand how and why.

Linux On The Windows 11 Desktop

A month ago Microsoft officially released Windows 11. One of its features is the ability to run Linux GUI applications side by side as peers to normal Windows desktop apps. [Jim Salter] of Ars Tech…

Let's just say it again, loud and clear: #WSL and #WSL2 ARE NOT "LINUX" BUT AN ATTACK ON GNU/LINUX. It's almost always promoted by WINDOWS LOVERS in MICROSOFT'S POCKET.

#WSL is NOT #linux and #wsl2 isn't #gnu #linux but #vista11 (or 11) aka NSA malware/trap disguised as something it's not. Dual-boot, use Virtual Machine... anything but this honeypot that is EEE-style attack on Free software

The Death of WSL and WSL2

The era of WSL is ending; adding a small "g" to acronyms (rather than just version inflation and DirectX) won't save or salvage the failure WSL has been for nearly half a decade (appalling adoption rates)

#WSL and #WSL2 are dying based on new job ads. Now they've quit doing any further engineering, they just want to do shilling and media infiltration campaigns instead. Almost nobody uses that crap. Microsoft money down the abyss. http://techrights.org/2020/05/06/wsl2-usage-numbers/

Only About 150,000 People Worldwide Use WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux)

Why we expect Microsoft to abandon/mothball WSL sooner or later (just like most products); WSL and WSL2 are failing (people would rather use proper distros... the "Real Thing")

#canonical now hires #microsoft shills for #wsl instead of #ubuntu ENGINEERS for #gnu #linux ... Canonical is a lost cause. Microsoft doesn't even need to buy it (the Canonical cow), it can milk the cow indefinitely

Spongebob Memes About Yesterday's Microsoft Googlebombing Campaign Against 'Linux' (Pushing WSL, or Vista 10, by Misusing the Trademark)

Microsoft’s strategy against GNU/Linux is going according to plan, thanks to the Linux Foundation‘s staff, Canonical’s leadership and various clueless blogs that fail to recognise that this ‘support’ from Microsoft is actually an attack in disguise

#canonical still trying to look like "community while pushing #microsoft #wsl and other #windows stuff https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Feedback-For-Ubuntu-22.04-LTS see http://techrights.org/2021/07/09/canonical-ubuntu-microsoft/

#TechRepublic -- like #zdnet its sister site -- is spamming or #googlebombing "LINUX" again with #Microsoft #WSL #SPAM ... remember: This is an ATTACK on GNU/Linux

All those #microsoft spam-loving 'journalists' who write about #wsl2 have no excuse for NOT covering #gnu #linux distros that have VASTLY MORE USERS than #wsl and "2" and "g" combined. But it's #corruptMedia ... it prioritises what pays.
