From my post elsewhere on this topic:

Yet another in my ongoing series of headlines about how messed up Microsoft and tech in general is by using just Notepad as an example.

Why Notepad? Because it was supposed to be the most basic built in text editor for the Windows environment. They thing that would always work. The thing that would do exactly what it was supposed to no matter what.

They have messed it up so bad that it’s now an attack vector.

It’s the prime example of how they keep taking things that work and make them worse.
