They're biggest problems seem to have to do with what they're

they bought github, but it probably won't have any obvious
effects for a while. The biggest concerns probably have to do
with collecting data on users, and github was doutblessly doing
that already.

At least in the EU we had a big GDPR Windows Update that let you
disable every tracking. All in all an amazing law (for the user)
that would make sense for regulators to import.
