Interesting to See so Many Microsoft Ads on LQ.org . . .

I wonder how all of those wind up here?

As for me, I click them every time I see them . . .

There's something beautiful about Microsoft's money going to fund LQ, even if indirectly.

That's the point. Jeremy has limited control over the ads - he can make sure that they are relevant to a computer tech forum and that they are work safe. And, as was said the first time this arose, if Microsoft want to provide money for a Linux forum, Jeremy is happy to accept it.

And I have moved this to LQ Suggestions and Feedback as it's a post about the site and not a tech question.

I don't see any ads, adblock works great.

They need all the pub they can get now that Google is 'forcing' their employees to use either Mac or Linux and that one can only use Windows with special approval from 'higher up the ladder'

Kind regards,
