It's marked as a troll because it's a regurgitated line brought out whenever there is a discussion of a Microsoft vulnerability and adds nothing new to the conversation. It's used to discredit anyone pointing out a software alternative developed in a more security conscious way (a germane comment in a thread on security).

Wouldn't it be redundant, then?

Sure it's weird, but it works. =\

Mod parent insightful... Geez, flamebait?

I've wondered the same thing. The sixties were all about being against "The Man", yet, as the parent said, the people in charge of the music are being corporate shills.

You mods would do well to note that some of the best insight comes from people that disagree with you.
