This kind of attack can happen on any tech stack where bad passwords have ever been allowed. The dunking is obviously fun, but the fact that the underlying technology happened to be Microsoft’s is largely irrelevant.

Yeah, it’s just that less legacy conpanies have less chance of having a system that can be compromised in this way. Conversely, Microsoft is almost guaranteed to have it.
