      I guess they say it each time they’re caught not prioritizing security. Then back to management as usual, prioritizing bullshit new features and marketing over security and bug fixes.

    Are they going to drop the constant data collection, or is that data collection also considered ‘secure’?

    Microsoft admitted that it could have taken steps to prevent two aggressive nation-state cyberattacks from China and Russia

    Microsoft spent years ignoring a vulnerability while he proposed fixes to the “security nightmare.” Instead, Microsoft feared it might lose its government contract by warning about the bug and allegedly downplayed the problem, choosing profits over security

    Jesus fucking Christ Microsoft.

    Edit: OP, the article currently links to page 2, which is a bit odd to read first. Here is page 1.

    Always weird to see "Microsoft in damage control mode, when like 98% of Microsoft employees see literally no difference from the day before.
