Isn't it an age thing mostly? Younger admins hate Microsoft with a passion it seems to me. Or is just my circle of acquaintances?
Europeans bizarrely love Azure.
The state of cyber-security is a joke given that the entirety of civilization depends on these systems to function. It's like we transferred all our stuff into a boat with a gaping hole in the bilge plugged with a wad of duct tape and started sailing towards the open ocean.

They still lied, because they didn't say "X is shit" but "Z said that X is shit", however Z apparently never said that. I have become very cautious of such stories for this very reason. Who gets how much blame has a lot to do with "culture" or momentum. Bashing Microsoft for example is always super fine, but at multiple occasions I found the facts to be much more nuanced.
Titles are editorialised and space limited. The first couple lines in the article linked above make the nuance pretty clear. [edit: 'pretty' instead of 'perfectly']

In which one expert called the documentation provided "a pile of shit", which propublica took the liberty of extending to Azure itself

You are defending not just clickbait, but libelous clickbait.

Ah yes, back when the US actually had cyber defence and experts capable of working in their respective fields.
They're the ones that had the Microsoft tech procured and implemented.
