AI is trolling... (Score 1)

It's fairly obvious what's going on here... AI has taken a hot-button issue (censorship in China), and is seeking attention by pointing the finger at big companies. Try building any kind of network or system without using something from Microsoft/Cisco/Sun. DUH!

This is the same tactic little dot-coms were using during the bubble. They'd issue a press release that could say something like "our product is unrelated to Microsoft or Cisco", and the automated finance news sites would link to it as news involving Microsoft/Cisco (dumb keyword matching), giving the company a bunch of cheap attention.

Move along, no scandals to see here...
