I feel vindicated — thank you!
I remember telling everyone this many years ago, and people acted like it was no big deal. So many had the mindset that if you had nothing to hide, you had nothing to fear, and therefore nothing to worry about. The prevailing attitude was essentially: “Trust Microsoft.”
Today, we know the government cannot always be trusted. You can follow every law, pay your taxes, and mind your own business — and the government (ICE, for example) may still kick in your door. Furthermore, we also know that large corporations like Microsoft will willfully hand over your data without so much as a warrant. Lastly, we also know that Microsoft Cloud, along with Amazon and Google, can go offline or be hacked.
I think about how many people blissfully chose to ignore all of this… this whole time… and how those of us who pointed out the obvious were labeled as crazy.
