Anti-microsoft troll is a particular subspecies of anti-corporate troll that
narrows their opposition to corporations specifically to that of Microsoft
Corporation (and/or developers/OEMs for Microsoft products), and thus may
actually support other corporations (sometimes even similar or larger in
size/influence, such as Google or IBM) as a means to supporting their cause.
As with many (most?) trolls, their comments are not only off-topic, but
based on exaggeration, conjecture, and often paranoia. Thus both calling
"off-topic", and confrontation with either facts, or a questioning of their
conjectures (or both) is often an effective way to defeat such trolls, and
worse yet (for them) educates others that not only are the troll's
statements false (or inflammatory at best), but the opposite may often be
the case, thus having the effect of immunizing folks against the same attack
(or at least reducing its effectiveness) for the future.
Defeating the specific messages from anti-microsoft trolls thus has the
effect of forcing them to mutate their message and/or often find a
completely different line of attack, and such trolls have done so over the
years. However, note that even rational defeats of their messages won't stop
them from citing their earlier troll messages as "evidence" in a "pattern"
of behavior in order to support a current message. Even if they admit to the
earlier messages as being false, they may still persist with the
meta-message of "regardless, there's a pattern" in order to further bolster
or raise the apparent significance of a current message.
Anti-microsoft trolls, while not necessarily organized per se (very few
trolls are), certainly naturally flock together around their common
hatred-cause, and cite each others' statements, arguments etc., especially
across forums/lists, and especially so when they are able to socially
engineer the media into being a vehicle for their messages, which is not
very difficult given that exaggeration, and the "evil big guy" archetype are
two templates very commonly used by journalists because they know they get
more attention (views, reads etc.) by doing so. If there is a specific
victim (even theoretical) then journalists readily use the "innocent little
guy(s) vs. evil big guy" archetype for the same reasons.
A long standing area of such troll messages is the assertion that Microsoft
is doing something to "divide", "fracture", "drive a wedge into", or
otherwise "harm" open source communities, companies, developers etc.
A recent (2007) example of this is citing Microsoft's apparent effort to get
"patent indemnity agreements", including such examples as a "patent
agreement and covenant not to sue" that appears to have originated with the
inflammatorily titled Fortune Magazine Article from May 28th, 2007 that
states that "Microsoft General Counsel Brad Smith and licensing chief
Horacio Gutierrez stated that FOSS [Free and Open Source Software] infringes
on no fewer than 235 Microsoft patents." Thus anti-microsoft trolls are
crafting messages around this issue.
Example: Michael Collins and refutation
In addition, Brad Smith's assertion (if we take Fortune at its word) itself
could be categorized as low-grade "patent troll" behavior (low-grade because
no actual lawsuit was/is being brought).
In fact some even hypothesize that this action may be a deliberate "troll"
on the part of Microsoft, not necessarily to get income/indemnity from
patent agreements (whose actual value does not seem commensurate with the
cost of negative publicity around this event), but rather to prompt the
expected (and certainly emotionally enhanced) response from anti-microsoft
trolls in order to raise a general awareness and criticism of software
patents overall, in the hopes that increasing such awareness (and outright
anger) may increase the chance for patent reform, which could remove a very
significant source of potential liability to Microsoft (which would be worth
the cost of negative publicity incurred, certainly if "in the end" positive
publicity resulted, thus being a kind of publicity gambit of sorts).
Since such patent reform would nearly certainly also help the very same open
source etc. interests that that anti-microsoft trolls act as if they are
"defending", yet would never (or would be highly unlikely to) overtly join
any effort that could actually help Microsoft (since the anti-microsoft
troll is more about being anti-microsoft than pro something else, hence a
troll), this tactic may simply be Microsoft emotionally manipulating
(emotional manipulability is a common attribute of most trolls) entire
legions of anti-microsoft trolls into a highly motivated distributed patent
reform army to help Microsoft's theorized actual cause. Were this to be true
(and there is sufficient intelligence/smarts at Microsoft for it to be
within the realm of reasonable possibility), and if patent reform does
actually result from these events, it would perhaps be the single biggest
successful manipulation of trolls to a particular desired ends in history.
Note that despite the fact that as stated "emotional manipulability is a
common attribute of most trolls", the method of directly using that line of
attack to defeat (or otherwise manipulate) trolls is not necessarily ethical
itself. It has an "ends justifies the means" feel to it, and in spite of how
good the end result may be, it's definitely at best questionable as to
whether it is right to treat people in that way, and at worst very much a
"dark side" method. The point of this note is not to deny that people and
companies use such methods daily, because they do (e.g. advertising,
marketing, sales), but rather, to alert and caution the reader before they
are seduced too quickly by such a method, make a habit of it, and thus have
it forever dominate their behavior and identity.

Court Ruling

For Microsoft
King Pyrrhus, meet Bill Gates.

Microsoft will continue to argue that any serious remedy would damage
innovation. But Microsoft suppressed the innovation of Netscape, Sun and
Intel. In any case, Microsoft is hardly a leading innovator. It bought
the technologies for its major products. Its genius has been in business
and predation, not innovation.
Microsoft's response to the legal threat it continues to face is to
unleash a swarm of lobbyists and lawyers upon the administration and
Congress to urge a quick settlement. Judging from its past negotiations
with the Department of Justice, the company will not accept any
settlement that seriously inhibits its ability to engage in predation.

They're disgusting. Microsoft is obviously in trouble.
"Messrs. Bork and Starr are former U.S. solicitors general and federal
appeals court judges. They are counsel to ProComp, an industry association
that includes Microsoft competitors and supported the government case
against Microsoft."
Oh, so they work for an anti-MS industry association and were on the DOJ
side of the fence. They are not so likely to be offering a fair assessment.
And they are not very prescient either.
1. "On no count, moreover, was Microsoft's behavior found lawful. The charge
of attempted monopolization of the browser market failed only because the
government did not offer readily available evidence that browsers
constituted a relevant market and that barriers to entry existed. Microsoft
won not because it was innocent but because the government did not carry its
burden."
"We wuz robbed!" Sounds like the Brooklyn Dodgers at the end of all of
their seasons.
2. "For no discernible reason, much of the press has unquestioningly
accepted Microsoft's jubilation that the Court of Appeals vacated the trial
court's order that Microsoft be broken into two independent companies.
Nobody, including the government's lawyers, expected that order to stand up.
Microsoft was denied even the most rudimentary hearing on the appropriate
remedy. Now there is to be a hearing, and there are compelling reasons to
take divestiture seriously."
At the end of the day, Microsoft still stands and is just about 3 times the
size that it was in 2001.
3. "Much the same is true of the court's reversal and remand for trial on
the issue of whether Microsoft's bolting of its operating system and browser
into a single package was an illegal tying arrangement. Noting that the
integration of products often benefits consumers, the court rejected a rule
of per se illegality and remanded for trial under the rule of reason. The
government will have to prove that the anticompetitive effect in the browser
market outweighs any enhanced efficiency. Since Microsoft has never been
able to articulate a plausible efficiency from the bolting, the government
seems likely to prevail."
The government and states looked into their crystal ball and decided to
fold.
4. "But when the court addressed the charge of monopolization of the
operating-system market, which was the core of the case, the news was all
bad for Microsoft. The company was found to have destroyed the nascent
threats to its operating system monopoly posed by Netscape's browser,
Navigator, and Sun Microsystems' Java, a technology designed to work with
any operating system. Singly or in combination, these could accept
applications and thus threaten Microsoft's monopoly by making users and
application writers indifferent to the operating system used. The attacks on
Navigator and Java were exclusionary tactics without benefit, and promising
ultimate harm, to consumers. This was a violation of the Sherman Act."
Whoop-dee-doo! No penalty, though, since the court found that there never
was a threat and so there never really was any destruction to the threat.
But the tactics were proscribed and, some 6 years later, the anti-MS crowd
still cannot muster any real threat. The only thing different is that they
don't have an excuse for being so lame.
These guys can't hold a candle to Nostradamus.

As with many (most?) trolls, their comments are not only off-topic, but
based on exaggeration, conjecture, and often paranoia. Thus both calling
"off-topic", and confrontation with either facts, or a questioning of
their conjectures (or both) is often an effective way to defeat such
trolls, and worse yet (for them) educates others that not only are the

often be the case, thus having the effect of immunizing folks against

-- Andrew Halliwell <spi...@ponder.sky.com> in comp.os.linux.advocacy
Amazing, it can read, no? I have been using this link for about
a month to expose the ad hominem attack of the trolls, which it
has a reasonable explanation. That which is quoted is regarding
an observation of astroturfing at an industrial level, which it
would not surprise me if exists. However, I have not seen nearly
as much of it as I have seen with trolls parroting Microsoft
allegiance.
The Linux advocates in this newsgroup support Linux advocacy in
their cause, plain and simple. None of us are really interested
in support of any corporation. When we see competition
supporting Linux, we cheer. This is in contrast to Microsoft
sycophants, who are out to denigrate Linux and Linux advocacy.

This is true of the Anti-Linux trolls in this newsgroup. Use of
these techniques can frustrate them and slowly drive them away.
Eveh Gary Stewart gave up his nymshifting for a limited time.
(Note that he has returned to using the X-No-Archive = Yes
header, which expires in Google Groups archive after 7 days.
Hence it is important for advocates to archive all his messages,
header and all.)

1.4 The Charter of comp.os.linux.advocacy
The charter of comp.os.linux.advocacy is:
For discussion of the benefits of Linux compared to other
operating systems.
That single sentence is the one and only charter of the
newsgroup comp.os.linux.advocacy. The newsgroup's charter is for
the newsgroup as a place for supporters of Linux to gather to
discuss Linux, for the betterment of the Linux community and the
promotion and development of Linux. It supports this as a place
for those who would like to learn more about Linux to come to
learn from those who know Linux. It does not call for it to be a
place where the anti-Linux propagandists to gather in order to
discredit Linux.

Anti-corporate troll is generally opposed to all things done, run by, led
by, or affected by corporations.==> especially Roy/Racine, Mark, Rex, 7.
Paranoid troll asserts that anyone who opposes them or any of their ideas
must be against them personally and possibly even "out to get them" for
whatever reason. ==> especially whining bitches like, Marti, Thumpy, Terry.
Anti-microsoft troll is a particular subspecies of anti-corporate troll that
narrows their opposition to corporations specifically to that of Microsoft
Corporation (and/or developers/OEMs for Microsoft products) especially
(subspecies) like ==> Terry, Liarnut, 7, Thumpy, Roy/Racine, Dumkopf, TV,
nessuno.
Rex is a bit different, I guess, he never made it to get some important well
paid job in Redmond and that drove him nuts!

Zuiderduintjes for inspections. Besides genuine Dutch Clogs my company makes

A friend of me on usenet, who traced me and e-mailed me, once called me a
"Clogwog", so since then that's the nym I use.
Oh and before Marti might think "gotcha", as he did in the past:

Rottumeroog as Rottumerplaat occupied by vogelwachters (birdwatchers?).
In the spring and autumn are a limited number of excursions to Rottumeroog.

Ha, ha, you replied to an old post, so you are interested.

Description of comp.os.linux.advocacy (C.O.L.A.), it serves no *useful*
purpose.
* The purpose of comp.os.linux.advocacy is to serve as a
forum for windows bashers and unrelated topics.
* comp.os.linux.advocacy is not a support group. Support
questions are off-topic. comp.os.linux.advocacy is a
*troll* *group*.
* Cola loons** ensure that their posts are littered with lots of swear
words.

Marti, whilst you and other advocates are at it, let's give Rick
Mather a real COLA welcome, seeing he is such a deserving fellow.
I examined the words on his http://linuxidiots.blogspot.com
This blog has rather hateful language on it, that needs
attention, for example:
[quote] He [Marti] is easily driven to pathetic, useless attempts
to NetKKKop people. He exposes his homosexuality widely across
usenet. He brags about his dead friend Gerard "fucking his brains
out", "Which you silly sissies can't accomplish". [/quote]
Per Google's TOS, they are strongly against "hate or violence"
from posters using their blog service.
[quote] While Blogger values and safeguards political and social
commentary, material that promotes hatred toward groups based on
race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran
status, or sexual orientation/gender identity is not allowed on
Blogger. [/quote]
At the very top of the blog is a narrow blue header with "[SEARCH
BLOG]", "[FLAG BLOG]", "Next Blog>". Click on "[FLAG BLOG]"
which opens a new window or tab. Select the bubble next to "Hate
or Violence" complaint. Next click "[CONTINUE]" at the bottom.
A new webpage opens, "Hate against a protected group". Click
"Continue >>" and follow succeeding directions.
Thus, by filing complaints will help Rick Mather to understand
that such hate posts are never an acceptable agenda in any part
of the Internet.
