To clarify a lot of the misinformation in the comments:

* To my knowledge, Microsoft doesn't own Cyanogen.

* The genesis of this is old (public) news: https://cyngn.com/press/cyanogen-announces-strategic-partner...

* Cyanogen OS != Cyanogenmod. Cyanogen OS is a commercial OS. Cyanogenmod is an open source, community-driven OS.

Thank you for that clarification. The article didn't explain the difference between CyanogenOS and CyanogenMod, after reading it I thought they were talking about the latter.
