If anything, I'm grateful to this article for exposing me to this Bill Gates deposition. I had no idea he was so repugnant and incompetent liar. Sometimes, in my mind, I'm trying to justify the clearly bad actions by big corporations by saying something like "maybe they don't know" or "maybe they are in a tight spot between many bad choices", but here it's loud and clear that it was deliberate. He and his buddies knew what they were doing, they knew it was wrong and they didn't care. Neither had he the guts to own up to his wrongdoing.
