    The series of six essays from an ex-microsofty who was on core and kernel projects prior about Azure absolutely fucking terrifies me.

    And my government keeps tying itself closer and closure to Azure 😬😬😬

          That’s great, I agree with you, but that’s still a completely unrelated discussion to their role as a Defence Contractor and their countless reports on new threat actors and vulnerabilities. If and when Britain becomes capable of replacing them then that will be a day to celebrate.
