Saying "again" has zero bearing on frequency, unless you mean to suggest that every single action that MS and it's individual employees take are "shady stuff," continuously, without exception.

Of course it does involve frequency, "again" can either mean something that's happening very often OR something that stopped happening and started again.

It's a matter of corporate strategy and has nothing to do with each worker.

>every single action

It doesn't have to suggest all actions, only re-occurring behavior. Microsoft had a well deserved reputation as a grim reaper in the tech industry.

I agree! The person I was responding to reacted to "again" as if a behavior needs to "stop" in order for it to happen "again." It doesn't. It only needs to be reoccurring.
