Of course, but there's a difference between negligence and misfortune.

A federal cybersecurity watchdog group has reported that Microsoft’s cloud cybersecurity has massive and wide-ranging shortcomings ranging from failed technology to a “security culture” that is “inadequate and requires an overhaul.”

Throughout this review, the Board identified a series of Microsoft operational and strategic decisions that collectively point to a corporate culture that deprioritized both enterprise security investments and rigorous risk management.

Agreed, but that is also my point. Carelessness and negligences of lurks in every company…especially large ones where things can fall through the cracks.

That's true. In this case it's systemic, which is definitely worse. Given Microsoft's size, I still doubt this will have an effect. Governments will unwaveringly continue to use their products 🤷
