Microsoft
The new Evil Empire (the old one was IBM ). The basic complaints are, as
formerly with IBM, that (a) their system designs are horrible botches, (b)
we can't get source to fix them, and (c) they throw their weight around a
lot. See also Halloween Documents.
The old Evil Empire (the one before that was IBM). The new one is Google.
The basic complaints were, as formerly with IBM, that (a) their system
designs are horrible botches, (b) we can't get source to fix them, and
(c) they throw their weight around a lot. (d) They use lock-in tactics
and antipatterns to make it hard for users to leave their systems.
(e) They often claim to "love open source" while simultaneously keeping
their main products closed. (f) Windows is increasingly a remotely
managed operating system where the user is not really in control of
what's happening.
