I didn't say that I think no one is doing it, I said I think you're exaggerating. If people are doing something illegal would they actually outright admit it to a stranger? Much less a company...

If MS is doing it such that people actually KNOW about it then I have little doubt that it would be well known and people would at least be clamoring for a lawsuit against them. So again, it'd be nice if you gave actual evidence beyond hearsay. I don't doubt that people you've personally known have done it, but I don't know if this really represents industry standard.

There's a concept of "innocent until proven guilty." You don't have to believe that someone MUST be innocent in order to give them the benefit of the doubt without pressing evidence to the contrary.
