Indeed, some comments here are ridiculous. They are a company, they want to earn Money. Contrary to what people might think, just because a company tweets they support the BLM movement, that doesn't immediately mean(in fact, it almost never means) that they're genuinely interested in being benevolent. Stop being naive.



I guarantee you MS has enormous software and support contracts in place doing all kinds of work for the federal government with regards to surveillance. There is just too much funding out there to ignore that space.

I can't think of any enterprise IT firm that could be take seriously by shareholders if they planted some stake in the ground that they were going to NOT go after that business. There is no way.
