morgan_greywolf's Journal: Slashdot known Microsoft astroturfers list #1

In the coming days I will be documenting known Microsoft astroturfers, together with evidence that paints them as such. Do what you will with this information. I will try to list only actual astroturfers, not fanboys, but I can't be 100% certain who-is-who. So, I will gladly accept any exceptions/modifications in the comments below. If you are the person in question, don't feel bad if I label you an astroturfer and you are not -- but you will be required to prove that you are not an astroturfer in order to be removed from the list.

Note: this list is hardly complete and will be issued in its entirety about once per week.

Update: thanks to those who have submitted updates and comments!

freddy_dreddy evidence
Defcon79 evidence
ThinkFr33ly evidence
Julie188 evidence (her blog, linked in her sig currently), plus looking at her posting record, only posts in stories that are of interest to Microsoft.
Thaad.Isolas evidence (to this date, this is his ONLY post, and the account is older than that)

Good luck

Plenty of ridicule headed your way with such a project. Mind you, you've got pretty thick skin from what I've seen, but still, there's a lot of slashdotters who are going to think you're either delusional or a Twitter sockpuppet or something.

Bah. I don't plan to go around evangelizing this much -- I might be a Linux fanboy, but I'm no Twitter. That guy has mental problems. Seriously. I'm just going to keep posting it, keep it mostly on the down-low and see who notices.

not to mention total tools

wow [slashdot.org].

Yeah, he's definitely drank wayyyy too much MSFT kool aid. BTW--note that my goal is not tag out all MSFT employees -- there are MSFT employees who have not drank the kool aid. This guy is NOT one of them.

Why is there no shill mod?
