      An active mass genocide is an odd time to make a statement?

      Microsoft lied about not supplying the IDF military cloud in the past.

      And AI is a far more direct contribution to genocide than excel support.

      Plenty of reasons to do it now. And better now than tomorrow.

      Literally this

      It’s like they are signaling to the world how virtuous they are

      A kind of high ground moral messaging if you will
