The GNU.org website has an interesting post in the "Philosophy of the GNU Project" category. Briefly describes its software Microsoft as malware. Together with Microsoft, it also reports Apple and Amazon.
We can not know why these statements are on the GNU.org website, but what gives them particular weight is the fact that the site is backed by the Free Software Foundation (FSF) or the Free Software Foundation.
The Free Software Foundation is committed to developing and promoting software for the needs of users without seeking a profit. The event allows the Foundation not to cheer on its words.
To be fair though, we should mention what it defines as malicious software the Free Software Foundation.
Proprietary software is often malware [1]
- "Malware": translation of the source term "malware".
The FSF states that "Malware means software designed to operate in ways that abuse or harm the user." It makes no mention of the fact that some users may already know what they are running on their computers.
Continuing FPS reports that Windows systems have a hidden backdoors και ότι στα Windows 10 χρησιμοποιείται για την automatic install updates, but also to remotely disable applications. Microsoft continues to tell the NSA first about the vulnerabilities security before addressing them, and is stopping Windows XP from being released, except for the few companies that continue to pay.
As you can imagine, the Foundation also reported on default Windows 10 settings that allow Microsoft to spy on its customers, that disk encryption in Windows 10 sends keys to Microsoft, and that the company's OneDrive allows NSA to directly control the data of users.
Apple and Amazon did not escape the GNU.org website, but the complaints are "faults" in the face of Microsoft's "misdeeds".
