“A formidable array of technology companies, consumer groups and cyber libertarians are taking on Microsoft over its ambitious plans to make people use more of its software and services. “The groups claim the software giant’s strategy will dent consumer privacy, limit consumers’ choices and stifle competition in the technology industry. “The company is also facing legal challenges from two companies who claim that key planks of Microsoft’s central net strategy are based on technologies they pioneered.”
