    Explain how “hundreds of of thousands” die of not affording Microsoft products, who do you think buys them lmfao? Your standards for humanity are so high i encourage you to apply them to yourself. How much of your income have you donated? How many lives have you personally saved via your efforts?

    Anyone on a starvation diet doesn’t have a computer, or is at least pirating that shit. It’s not a oil, diamond, or pharma baron situation. Microsoft money isn’t taken out of the mouths of the starving, it’s from governments, corporations, and professionals who can afford it. Anyone who can’t doesnt need it or pirates that shit.

    I’m only half kidding here, but the man is roughly stealing from the rich (corpos, yuppies, and boomers incapable of googling “windows free how”) and giving to the poor (children starving, sick, and thirsty). You still complain? If you were around when Robin Hood robbed the king’s cart and gave 99% of the gold back to the starving commoners, you’d still whinge he still kept his wedding ring and cottage.

      They die from the billions he’s keeping. If I donated 20$ it would impact me more than bill gates will be impacted through this act of generosity.
