Violating yours, that is.

@aral so, why point out at MS in general? -
@jaykannan I actually have no idea what you’re on about, sorry. The leaks were about Microsoft. The revelations are hugely damning. -
@aral its no surprise that every US company is forcefully involved, MS would never leak all that data voluntarily. -
@jaykannan What I don’t get is why you have such blind faith in Microsoft. You really think Ballmer gives two craps about your privacy? -
@aral I don't care about it, because everyone is screwed. Blame the US government for this issue. you can blame MS for bad UX all you want. -
@jaykannan And yet all companies aren’t the same. Different people; different cultures. Some resist more than others. Some actively assist. -
@aral I don't think MS has any more inclination to assist the NSA than Apple,. Apple is far more authoritarian - so I'd suspect them more
