Microsoft was different at their peak - they were famous for having no lobbying arm at all - the whole strain of tech libertarianism - this enraged the permanent government and the press. You're supposed to pay the press to run stories to influence the permanent government.

"Organic hatred" is a funny concept. Yes, the hatred for MS was organic; they didn't play the lobbying and paying off the press game and that created organic hate for them in the Brahmins which trickled down as people copied their attitudes. 1/2
