Presumably you can get your money back if you don't like the results.

edit: well this appears to be unpopular. It's a preview release, nobody is using this in production. They are offering the tech for free while they kick out the bugs and determine where things don't work as everyone expected. The fact that this is doing things they might not have expected suggests that this part of the process was necessary.

If you expected this to be production-ready, then you've misunderstood the purpose of a preview release. This applies to MS the same as it does any other developer.

The point of GP is that the grand PR campaign doesn't really state it's an unfinished product and that they are looking for free testers and security and legal audits.

Do you parse "preview release" in some way other than that which I outline above?

If they're encouraging users to distribute my GPL code under a CC0 license that doesn't even mention my name, how am I gonna "get my money back?"

It’s unacceptable to ship this kind of security flaw even for a half baked internal proof of concept.
