Techrights is very difficult to portray as "right-wing", so some people instead attempted to say something like, "well, there are some right-wing people in the IRC channel or the IRC network" (as if we choose who comes there, we very seldom use a ban-hammer).
The Microsoft OOXML Modus Operandi: Throw 1,000 Pages of Other People's Work for a Judge to Read Ahead of a One-Hour Meeting
To scare me ahead of the Hearing the Microsofters' lawyers sent me by post not skeleton arguments (which would actually be useful) but instead a massive bill that they wrongly assumed I'd be made to pay. They had this fantasy. Now they have a write-off.
When They Have Nothing Left to Help Advance Abusive Litigation for Microsoft People... Other Than Throwing ~500 Pages of Someone Else's Work Into a PDF
The above isn't out of the ordinary; it echoes what their other client did: he basically assaulted women in America. Then he hired lawyers to bully those women some more (in America). I, in the UK merely reported - correctly - what had happened in America. So he took the same unscrupulous lawyers as his litigation buddy ("another former Microsoft researcher") to bully the person who merely reported what he was jailed for while he was a Microsoft employee.
If 'Microsoft v Techrights' is Dealt With by a 'Microsoft Court' (or a Court Outsourced to Microsoft)
For instance, imagine a hearing seeking to invalidate a Microsoft patent... hosted by... Microsoft.
GNU/Linux Grows at Windows' Expense and Microsoft Trolls Infest and Maliciously Target Articles About It
Some readers of ours sent us private messages to illuminate trolling in comment sections discussing the above. We saw that in Soylent News, someone from Soylent News reported to us the same in other sites, and having surveyed some comments and studied patterns in them, it's rather clear "WSL" is little/nothing more than a weapon of propaganda against adoption of GNU/Linux.
Some of the Many Reasons We Sued Microsofters for Harassment
The perpetrators of harassment love painting themselves as the victims. Nothing could be more offensive than such gross inversions and reversals.
Extortion is a Crime, Even If You're Based in Another Continent and Work for Microsoft
The Microsofters very well know that doing it from another continent has advantages. It can complicate matters and add more bureaucratic layers. We cannot have cops dispatched to their home and they can hide in various states, so enforcing British law against them is harder (it's asymmetric!)
Pushing Microsoft's Proprietary Trash/Trap as "Open" and "Linux" (Windows is 'Linux' Now?)
So you want Linux? So you have two options: Windows or Windows.
Slopwatch: Linux FUD From Slopfarms, Blaming Linux for Microsoft Issues; Even WebProNews Has Become a Slopfarm (Googlebombing "Linux" With Slop Images and Fake/Plagiarised Text)
The Web is drowning in LLM slop and Google isn't keeping up or is simply participating in that.
The Openwashing Shills Initiative (OSI) - Part II: Lying to the IRS is a Big Issue
They say that the only way to reliably keep a secret is to reduce the number of people "in the know" to one.
Microsofters Were Scheming to Take Over This Entire Web Site (in Their Own Words!)
Money gets spent censoring/deplatforming people who speak about real issues; no money gets spent actually tackling those underlying issues, as they might result in criminal liability and bad press. This censorious mindset goes against the fundamentals of Free software, but some people have plenty to hide.
Microsofters Targeting the Wife of the Critic of Microsoft
Below we explain that what Matthew Garrett, helped by Brett Wilson LLP and before that by Neil Brown, boils down to extortion, more so once they brought in an actual strangler from Microsoft to issue additional threats.
United States Federal Government's Digital Analytics Program (DAP): GNU/Linux Users Represent Close to 6% of Visitors This Year
The first occurrence of GNU/Linux was owing to my older colleague and it happened here in Manchester, not in Finland or in Portland (Oregon). That's just the real history!
Microsofters Issuing Threats to Microsoft Critics Who Blog About Microsoft
This past Friday at 4PM the Microsofters were leaking out the trial information to Microsoft, which pays for the SLAPPs through salaries (the serial strangler from Microsoft) because there's a crisis at the company and there's incriminating stuff they wish to hide.
The SLAPPs From Microsofters Distract From Serious Copyright Infringement by Microsoft and Apparent Business Crimes
Aside from other issues, such as strangling women
Unless a Third of All Microsoft Layoffs Worldwide Are in Redmond (Washington) Alone, Microsoft Has Just Lied to Everyone Via Jordan Novet in CNBC
If 2,000 of those ~6,000 are just in Redmond, how much does that leave for almost 50 other states, including California, where many Microsoft operations are based (Microsoft, LinkedIn, GitHub etc. aren't based in one city in Washington)?
As Expected, Microsoft Uses Media Operative (Jordan Novet) to Downplay the Scale of Mass Layoffs
Well, those numbers are false and misleading, based on prior leaks. The real numbers are 5%+5%, i.e. 10%.
One is Simply Doomed to Fail When Working for Violent Men From Microsoft and Attacking Women as Well as People Who Merely Expose Crimes or Report Real Crimes
So far two Judges (called "Masters" here) separately and independently ruled in our favour because they can see what's really happening
The Gerstnerisation of Microsoft: Seventh Wave of Microsoft Layoffs (Over 20,000 to be Cut) Allegedly Going to Start Shortly, Probably Start of Next Week, Microsoft Spreads Chaff and Noise Before the
Seventh in 2025 alone! For those who don't know, Lou Gerstner accepted that IBM was unsustainable as a business and fired an unprecedented (truly huge) number of staff. For this he became either admired or reviled at IBM (depending on which side of the axes one fell). He sure left "his mark" (or stain).
SUSE the Company Now Uses LLM Slop to 'Write' Its Blog, What Does That Tell Us About SUSE?
It's very much possible that not every post and not every person there ever touched LLMs, but even a little slop spoils the broth
