>It’s rather bold to post here…

it is rather nice, honestly. would you prefer to scream into the void and not get any response at all?

an open line of communication with the responsible people seems like literally the best possible option, why are you actively discouraging it?

>Maybe you all want to talk to Microsoft PR/legal before posting?

you would rather not hear anything, or get word-salad legalese that doesnt mean anything? how exactly would that be better?

>would you prefer to scream into the void and not get any response at all?

At this point, yes. What has false platitudes done except cause more in-fighting?

>an open line of communication with the responsible people

And here's how the in-fighting begins. I'm not falling for the "they responded on social media. They're just like us!" anymore.

I don't want words, I want actions. Tired of playing whack a mole.

>you would rather not hear anything, or get word-salad legalese that doesnt mean anything?

Hearing nothing doesn't waste my time.

>Hearing nothing doesn't waste my time.

if not wasting time is your goal, several layers deep into the comments of a hackernews post is probably not the correct place to be.

		Perhaps. But I still do find insight in seeing the vibes of the community. Not as much from corporate PR.

I’m not intentionally discouraging it.

The responses are affecting my impression of Microsoft and Github extremely negatively. I don’t think I am alone.

It’s already pretty word salad legalese in my opinion, at least from Github.
