So the CEO of Microsoft obviously has no idea about the difference between gaming and gambling. Fair enough, nobody has to care about every possible hobby. But it is a bit wild that they just took that quote and ran with it and nobody said "Hey, is it ok to slightly edit it so it is less obvious you don't know jack shit about this topic?".
I don't know if I'm just being dumb and missing a joke here, but the statement doesn't say gambling.
I thought the same but I looked again and it's in there lol, about 9th or 10th paragraph from the bottom of the article (before the "more shit you might like" section).
It doesn't even seem like it was even taken out of context from the article lol.
"We ju$t care $o much about connecting all the gamer$$$ around the world." - giant soulless corporation
The article seems to have misquoted his tweet that doesn't mention anything about gambling.
That's not a misquote. That's just a lie
Ohhh I gotcha, I stand corrected - especially because I'm not willing to look for the tweet myself lol
