Ars Technica Says Microsoft Should Pay For Church

“Microsoft claims to want to be a good neighbor, but the jury is still out."

WTF... Ofc churches want in on the grift... Microsoft is a garbage company that should be disbanded. But no, it shouldn't fund churches.

if Microsoft wants to pay for the church... hey, that's their business. they should still be obligated to pay taxes, though.... and that's the real problem. Microsoft managed to convince people that they were actually going to be good for the communties they're in, when it's self evident that they were never going to be.
