Comment on Some bad code just broke a billion Windows machines
douglasg14b@lemmy.world 1 month agoTo be fair this seems to be the sentiment on most Linux and linux-ancillary forums.
Which while wrong and ignorant on multiple levels, seems on brand none the less.

What is wrong with saying that a paid product that is far inferior to a free (both as in beer and freedom) product should be dropped in favor of said free product when said paid product has embarrassing failures, scandals and abusive behavior on pretty much a weekly basis?
How long ago was it that Microsoft testified in front of Congress after deciding they weren’t going to fix a security hole because the negative press would cost them contracts (and thus money) which resulted in China successfully hacking the US government? A month or so? What did the Microsoft dipshit say again? Oh yeah, THIS time (after all the previous times) the CEO would be on top of security, weally! And more importantly, weeewe sowwyyyy, we won’t do it again.
Yes yes yes, this is a different provider, who cares? Its a core product that is only there because their system is so badly Designed in the first place.
These are.paid products and millions if not billions of machines went down and I’m the bad guy for saying that this is not acceptable and that people should drop that paid spyware and anware shit for Linux, which is free and a hell of a lot more reliable than this windows crap? YOU ARE PAYING MONEY FOR THIS, YOU STILL GET ABUSED AND THEN ITS STILL NOT RELIABLE! WHY DO YOU A ACCEPT THIS BULLSHIT? what is wrong with you?
