Outsourcing your Defense Department to a foreign country is a choice. Not a smart choice, but a choice nonetheless.
What Microsoft did was absolutely inexcusable.
But, really, not just for this alone.
As for the DoD enlisting Microsoft, given the latter's decades-spanning horrible reputation, I don't know what to say.
Um thanks
Great. Next can we stop using Microsoft for defense department computer systems?
I never would never have expected them to be using China based engis on defence systems thats wild. No wonder they got cooked by salt typhoon.
If a for profit firm does something illogical the answer for why is always that it pleased shareholders.
They wanted to save costs, but cheap was expensive.
