The Nokia Lumia was a terrible trainwreck. Microsoft could've done a better job, but they didn't. In hindsight, Nokia had just launched an incredible smartphone with a Debian-based OS and 2 years later they sealed a deal with Microsoft to make MS-Windows the new OS. Pretty good timing for Microsoft to kill off what they really hate. Especially considering that Ballmer was still their CEO at the time and he's known for saying "developers" a lot and calling Linux a cancer. The thing that made Google evil at that time for me is when they introduced Google+. Before they launched it, you could sign up with fake names and they didn't care. G+ changed that. Nowadays they're making it impossible to register without a valid cell phone number. |
