    Shhhhh… Get out of here with your nuance. Let them screech about the bad private company violating the First Amendment.

    It makes the monkeys feel better.

      How many billions of dollars in government contracts do you need to receive before the line blurs? Microsoft might as well be a subsidiary of the Federal Bureaucracy, given the role it plays in national security, infrastructure, and data management. The US government is its biggest client by far.

      That was the opposite of nuance. It was pedantry that deliberately missed the point.
