I'm sorry if my original comment wasn't clear enough. My original intent was not to say that it was Microsofts fault. Rather that it isn't surprising that some people with limited knowledge and/or understanding of the relevant details might blame Microsoft, and that people with an axe to grind on Microsoft would take advantage of that potential misunderstanding.
>First of all, whether it is actually Window's fault or not isn't the point. What matters is the perception by the general public and policy makers
Way to move the goalposts from "How is this Window's fault" to "the perception by the general public and policy makers". I don't think anyone is disputing that some people are blaming Microsoft for this. In fact the whole impetus for this comment chain is me pointing out how the public perception of microsoft being at fault doesn't match up with logic.
