Their CEO compared using Linux to moving to Canada (which historically was done to avoid military drafts). Not only did he insult an entire country, but he also implied that supporting Linux was the act of a coward.

Both are things that can be changed if enough people complain. Moving to Canada or using Linux because you prefer it in general is a different thing. https://twitter.com/TimSweeneyEpic/status/964284402741149698
