    Those are ‘vulnerabilities’ being exploited, and software will always have those, and when found, in Linux, they are patched, rather quickly in some cases. Microsoft develops Windows with the intention of making it vulnerable, so it is effectively commercial malware.

    Those are 2 entirely different things.

      The intention is currently suggested by a disgruntled ex-employee. I’d say that warrants caution before making such broad statements.

        No, Microsoft BAD! Now, does the fact that this is an allegedly diagruntled employee removes all the predatory bullshit and malware Microsoft does all the time? Just think about it, research a bit how Microsoft drives its business and revenue. It’s all there for anyone to see.
