Uh so where do we go for email that’s not a private company and not something that requires tech knowledge to setup your own email server?
Comment on Microsoft is reportedly banning Palestinians in the U.S. for life for calling relatives in Gaza
Tja@programming.dev 4 months agoMicrosoft is a private company and they can ask you to leave, no reason given, anytime.
And they have a history of over 30 years of being evil, manipulative and anticonsumer. If you base your online life on the good will of Microsoft you will be very disappointed sooner or later.

Where do i buy a car that’s not a private company? Where do I get internet service?
You can’t. Choose a reputable one. And pay for it, so you are a customer, not the product. Aaaaand I lost 95% of lemmy.

Nowadays we are the customer and the product. Paying doesn’t guarantee you anything.

Of course it doesn’t, I said that just above. Gets you a better chance tho.

Why do people sprout this bullshit. You can’t discriminate against a protected class that includes race, gender, age, disability, national origin, religion,
Tja@programming.dev 4 months ago
They aren’t. The are discriminating “for no reason at all”. Feel free to sue them. Godspeed.

Unfortunately, I don’t have standing as I’m not a Microsoft customer or Palestinian, nor do I have relatives or any contacts for that matter in Gaza.
Tja@programming.dev 4 months ago
Having relatives anywhere is not a protected class, to begin with.

They already do.

What’s the funniest (and saddest) is when people who are supposedly against private discrimination repeat this when it fits them.
