    I dislike this article because it hides important facts until the last section: “I am in touch with Microsoft about OneDrive Photos, and my early findings suggest that it was an unintended rollout. An apology should be coming soon.

    So, this journalist/news site shames Microsoft for doing something shitty, while doing something shitty themselves.

        You disagree with what? Do you think it is great journalism to hide that information to the very end of the article?

        MS clearly did something shitty, not arguing about that.

      Doing unintended rollouts is also shameful. They’re a billion dollar corporation. There’s absolutely no excuse for something like that to happen. The journalist did nothing wrong to call them out.

        It’s very unprofessional by MS and they should be shamed for it, I’m not arguing against that. I’m only saying I think this article is bad.

          What shitty thing did the author do? Regardless of if this rollout was intentional or not, they did do it, and there’s no excusing that An apology doesn’t change anything.

            I write that in my first sentence : “I dislike this article because it hides important facts until the last section

            You also make it sound like I’m defending MS - that confuse me quite a bit too since I’m actually stating in my comment that they did something shitty.

            Clear now?

              “I am in touch with Microsoft about OneDrive Photos, and my early findings suggest that it was an unintended rollout. An apology should be coming soon.”

              That’s not a particularly important fact. The important fact is that they did push this and there was nothing the users could do about it. Their apology doesn’t mean anything when they keep doing this shit.

                I see it differently, I think it makes quite a difference whether it was intentional or not.

                  Then you’re a fool. Every wrong these corporations commit should be met with as much hostility as we can muster. They don’t deserve our grace. If they could hook us all up to tubes and drain our blood for profit while blasting us with ads they would do it without even thinking twice. We’re nothing to them.
