Also, we feel obligated to disclose to you that we were compelled to disclose your email address to Microsoft during the discovery process as well as the content of many of your messages sent to us. We were not happy about doing this, but we had little choice. We have received assurances from Microsoft that they will not use or disclose your address for any purpose beyond this case.

I'm not kidding. This is exactly what they sent to users earlier today. As you can imagine, quite a few people are up in arms about it. “Sure, I can trust Microsoft with my personal information. They've never done anything to cause concern.” Yikes. Not good. Expect it to get worse before it gets better. Perhaps naming it “Lindows” wasn't the smartest thing they could have done? Pretty soon they'll be asking for my dental records.
