For something so obviously well known you seem to have difficulty providing evidence of your specific allegation (microsoft giving NSA advance notice of unpatched zero days.) I don't doubt it happens, so much as I expect extraordinary claims be backed with extraordinary evidence.

Start your homework engine: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-06-14/u-s-agencies-said-t... http://arstechnica.com/security/2013/06/nsa-gets-early-acces...

I don't understand. Does the way your argument work rely on people not having read the other comments on this thread? Because neither of those two articles back up the claim made about NSA and Microsoft, and both appear to describe a publicly-known documented program run by Microsoft. And, both of those points have already been made on the thread.

Is the user more - or less - vulnerable to an attack? You're quite the pedant, whoever you are ..

I'll happily accept this as an admission that you don't have a source to back up your original (extraordinary) claim. Thanks.

Hey, so you don't understand words. I get it. Thats quite a vulnerability you've got there.
