So, maybe there were errors?  I didn't see them, and
Microsoft didn't mention them, and the community of
the 1,000 authors of the page didn't agree with
Microsoft.

On top of that, Microsoft is a convicted Felon,
multiple times, and is on probation.  I don't have to
believe anything they say, because Microsoft has laid
a carpet of incredulity on the world, with the
falsehoods and outright lies, over three decades.

I see no reason to trust the Evil Empire, and, when I
see pure evil, I kill it.  I don't offer the fox
another night of freedom in the henhouse.

Just my prudent nature. Comes from 20 years in the
military.  I don't trust anyone who offers to "help",
or worse, offers me money to 'help' wikipedia!

No, there is too much that just feels wrong about the
whole thing!
