States attacking Microsoft have a nice, new tactic.

The pretense is that they need the source code to "examine" it for the cases.

A five-year-old can see what would actually happen: once released to the court, no doubt under numerous "guarantees" and "confidentiality agreements," the source code would somehow be inexplicably "leaked" whereupon it would, of course, become instant public knowledge across the planet. And the parasites whose sole goal all along has been the destruction of Microsoft and the plundering of its assets will have what they want.

Here's hoping Microsoft tells them to take a long walk off a short pier.
