This guy is a LibreOffice developer. He should be smarter than the average Internet Idiot. By far. By all means, he should know not to trust Microsoft.
And comparing this to maintaing a car or house is comparing apples and oranges. In those cases, I have rather clear legal means to get my rights. Online, not so much. And even worse for those living outside the US.
