  two major nation-state breaches of its core enterprise platforms, Microsoft is facing one of its most serious reputational crises.

  Emphasis mine: web “journalist” using terms wrong to sound fancy, and sounding like a muppet instead. “Nation-state” is not a fancy synonymous for “country” dammit.

  On-topic: Microsoft software vulnerability shouldn’t be a surprise for anyone here. It is not just a matter of higher market share, it’s also their “flashy new thing” syndrome - Microsoft loves to add irrelevancies to their products and push them down the users’ throats, and those irrelevancies increase the surface area for attacks.

    What’s that? Did you say CoPilot? Microsoft is pretty sure you said CoPilot, so here, they’ll add it to every platform you have to work with in the most obtrusive and obnoxious way possible, just for you!
