Russian President Vladimir Putin Wants Microsoft Out Of The Country by michellhilton(m): 4:08pm On Nov 02, 2016 |
Russia already has a plan to cut down usage of foreign software by supporting local companies and applications, but President Vladimir Putin is reportedly planning to accelerate the transition by getting rid of Microsoft products as soon as possible. And in his opinion, there’s a good reason why this should happen as soon as possible: Microsoft software can be used in the cyber war against other countries, and the United States could turn to products such as Windows and Office to infiltrate in Russia’s systems. NBC News claims it has obtained a document from the US Homeland Security which confirms that Russian hackers used malware injected into a Microsoft Office document to shut down the Ukrainian electrical grid last year, so Vladimir Putin is afraid that a similar tactic can be used by Americans against Russia as well. http://www.michellhilton.com/2016/11/vladimir-putin-quer-microsoft-fora-da-russia.html

There's no way these countries won't be superior to African countries. They pay attention to every detail. I doubt if any African president ever thought about the implication of the OS they operate daily in their offices even at the intelligence departments |
