Unfortunately, as competition in these areas intensifies, they are reverting to their familiar playbook of attacking rivals and lobbying for regulations that benefit their own interests. They are now making self-serving claims and are even willing to break the way the open web works in an effort to undercut a rival. And their claims about our business and
how we work with news publishers are just plain wrong.
This latest attack marks a return to Microsoft’s
longtime practices. And it’s no coincidence that Microsoft’s newfound interest in attacking us comes on the heels of the
SolarWinds attack and at a moment when they’ve allowed
tens of thousands of their customers — including government agencies in the U.S., NATO allies,
banks, nonprofits, telecommunications providers, public utilities, police, fire and rescue units, hospitals and, presumably, news organizations — to be
actively hacked via
major Microsoft vulnerabilities. Microsoft was warned about the vulnerabilities in their system, knew they were being exploited, and are now doing damage control while their customers scramble to pick up the pieces from what has been dubbed the
Great Email Robbery. So maybe it’s not surprising to see them dusting off the old diversionary
Scroogled playbook.
