It doesn't matter if they're the same. The point of the Scroogled campaign is to say "the other companies read your emails, while we don't". Like every other MS marketing campaign, it doesn't take long to unravel.

Hyperbole doesnt make your case stronger. In light of every other privacy issue happening in the world, this is a non story. I think it would be useful to prioritize outrage, and direct it to a spy agency or some other countries military.
