It's well-known that HN mods will edit submission titles to reduce chances of flamewars/axe-grindiness in the discussions. Not saying that's what happened here, but not a new thing.

I would love to hear the excuse that the mods have for this title change. Good luck to them!

Excuse? They don't need an excuse, "How Microsoft abuses its users" isn't very descriptive. The edited title reduces the heat and gives more info.

That's a fair point. I enjoy being a _bit_ provocative, but that title might have been a bit much.

The question mark is pretty bad though.
