content: How companies can fuck over Microsoft? After thinking about how Microsoft can and does control android to an extent because of copyrights, I remembered that Microsoft and Apple teamed up to buy Novele (forgot name) for their IP and patents. So, how can you screw over the dark side? By owning them! Well, enough that even Ichan would be like! Smart fellas! I would start buying Microsoft stocks. If multiple companies did this and had enough voting rights they all could tell Microsoft to stop it. If nothing else, owning part of a competitor could be interesting.
