Microsoft has done things multiple times that were blatantly illegal, and a couple of times ran afoul of governments, yet they still did new illegal things after that - as well as going right back to doing the things they were busted for before. There's no evidence that they are concerned with anyone suing them or 'going nuclear' if they aren't even worried about nation states that have come after them before.
