They now have access to private projects so can use that to help create exploits to closed source products that are hosted on GitHub or use it to create their own products or patents.
Fact? How do you define whether Microsoft is hostile? What are your criteria?
Look, I hated Microsoft in the '90s and '00s. I was there. I grew up in a world where IBM dominated the market though. They've both changed. The market has changed and both of these companies had to deal with that.
The reality is that nowadays people pay with their privacy instead of with currency for a product; they are the product. Does it matter much who owns the product (independent US company, big player like Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, Amazon, or Apple?)
The most recent is a month or two ago when I upgraded my motherboard and cpu and my retail Windows 10 deactivated and I was unable to activate it myself, so I had to contact support. "Support" was rude and insisted on invading my privacy by remotely accessing my system to do "something". It took several days of exchange and they treated me like a potential scammer and I even had to send scan of receipt to prove that I indeed bought a motherboard. Utter scum.
