Users just really believe in truth in advertising. Microslop wouldn't be encouraging people to be dirty, filthy liars, would they?
MS did learn a lot from Communist China
Back to Hasecorp for now...
In Spain there was a time when it was Hasechof and Microchof.
I remember when there was a webpage named "mocosoft" and microslop sued (and won) because the name sounded too similar in Spain.
After that, I went with mocosoft for a good while. Sad there weren't social media back then. It could have become a very viral thing.
And it's MICROSCUM, not microslop!
This is embarrassing... I'll keep calling them Microslop and Microflop more
A company that can't even stand trolling!😂
