The problem is that Microsoft's propaganda /needs/ translation, from
bullshit to truth, so verbatim regurgitation of that propaganda only
serves Microsoft's agenda, unwittingly or otherwise.
I don't know David Worthington from Adam, but I do know that anyone
who gives voice to Microsoft is not part of the solution.
Was he bribed? No idea, but such things are not exactly unprecedented
for Redmond's finest gangsters.
Was he used? Definitely.
