@arstechnica Wrong answer. The correct answer is: Microsoft is proprietary, privately owned, and completely out of their control. If Microsoft had the best cybersecurity around, the government should still use something more controlled.

Same here in Canada. If Canada runs afoul of the US, MS can just topple our govt.
