Choo Choo. That's me tooting my own horn. I called it. Microsoft is well on its way to using its classic embrace, extend, extinguish technique against Linux. It's never considered Linux a threat until now; when people are really and truly finding the Windows experience to be so terrible that it makes learning about an entirely new OS appealing. If you're a Linux contributor, do everything you can to keep all of that Microsoft garbage out.

Well, I don't think it would be an attempt to corrupt Ubuntu since Canonical already did that in the past with the Amazon shopping lens (but they did finally make it opt-in instead of opt-out by default). If anything, this move will be a great opportunity to get more people using free software, even though Microsoft is only doing this for their bottom line and not to benefit their users.
