Researchers at MSR can't publish everything they work on, you know. In a sense, MSR is also a patent mill. Sure they fund research and a good deal of it is published, but it's not simply out of the goodness of their hearts.

The comment was about academic researchers being encouraged to publish, not MSR researchers. People who work for MSR are Microsoft employees and therefore are corporate researchers not academic researchers.
