Evil Software Company
Poor, poor Microsoft. It can even get a fair deal from the supposedly ‘impartial’ guides of the information superhighway: the search engines. Sometime back, there was a big to-do about how Google returned Microsoft at the top of any query for “more evil than Satan himself”. This story is pretty well documented at these two places. Since then, many webpages have been created on the subject and Google has faithfully indexed them as well. Thankfully, links to these pages are now returned instead a reference to the hallowed www.microsoft.com site. But have the problems truly gone away? Can Microsoft ever escape the tag of the Evil Software Company?
