Make Web Not War: Astroturf?

[Evan Leibovitch]

After someone mentioned it to me I checked out http://www.webnotwar.ca

It looks very interesting .... until you get to the bottom of the page:

*We are a community of open tech enthusiasts. We love everything open: Open
Standards, Open Source, and Open Data.*

*If you have built something awesome or would like to get involved, please
reach out to us - we are always up for making new friends.*

 *Make Web Not War is powered by People & Code, Idea Notion, Microsoft
using WordPress on Windows Azure - and we love it.*



I've never known anyone to "love" Microsoft products, especially nobody who
claims to "love everything open". No mention of Linux, Apache, BSD, etc.

And then... look at the copyright on the website.

Pfft.

Then again... does anyone here know the people there? I'm happy to be
proven wrong. But on the surface this looks like some high quality M$
astroturf.
