"Microsoft has long been known to freely divulge information to the NSA"

{{Citation needed}}

Neither company has been known to do that.





This article is about systems Microsoft built for handing over specific users' data that Microsoft was given a court order for.

Again, there is no evidence of Microsoft freely divulging any user information to the NSA without a court order.


I never thought anyone would need a citation for something that has been common knowledge for years.


So common is this knowledge that stating attracts downvotes on a forum with the people who would know.
