Emphasis on "can be"; nobody's stopping the competition for coming up with similar schemes, and while they have the biggest market / mindshare when it comes to git / open source hosting, they are definitely not the only one and the alternatives are great.

I can see how it's a bit like indoctrination though, but as another thread mentions, the AWS certification isn't that different; the first certification you can achieve there is pretty much learning the marketing message and talking points from AWS and cloud computing as a whole.

In other words, AWS certifications suck too. I don't see how that excuses MS or GH.
