Dismissing legitimate concerns as screeching is pretty lame. Try making your your arguments without emotional manipulation.

Microsoft was a bad actor and leopards rarely change their spots.

Edit:Forgot to mention the classic whataboutism.

Thankfully, at least in this case, the same is not true for companies. When the highest level of leadership changes, its quite likely that the company, itself, will change as well.

With competent leadership, Microsoft has found a new business model which is working well for them without trying to control the direction of the entire industry. We've got other big players, now, that are far more concerning to me.
