In a void, anything can the “The most ____”
Open? Sure, definitely open… To vulnerabilities
Sometimes the elites poke fun at us with obviously untrue, absurd statements. It’s the equivalent of grabbing someone’s fist, pushing it in their face, and saying “stop punching yourself”.
Them corporate elites really love tongue-in-cheek backhanded statements such as that.
Without walls, you wouldn’t need windows.
Open to exploitation
What happens when you favor marketing over anything else?
You just lie, lie, lie, so many times that you actually believe your own shit
Open as in most leaks?
Open for exploits and surveillance
How ironic
Open to what exactly…?
OPEN TO WHAT!?
They’re probably talking about their customers opening their wallets
Infection, zero days, and data collection. TOTALLY open to those.
Our collective anuses.
Everyone but the user.
Open to the outdoors, to let the fresh air in.
As someone who switched to Mac in 2007… viruses!
Open to advertisers
Didn’t they call it “the most secure” a while ago?
Why are they allowed to openly lie?
Their official marketing is to call Windows 11 “the most secure version of Windows ever” or something along those lines. They definitely use “the most secure” in their marketing, but I think they do it in a way where it is only in reference to previous consumer versions of Windows if you actually parse out what is being said.
In the case of marketing, it’s just considered an opinion, mostly because if anything like that is ever put forth to a Judge, there’s 900 odd ways to loophole it.
“We meant our assholes, your honor; as open as they come.”
“We meant uhm… accepting.”
It could be called puffery. A claim so ridiculous that no reasonable person would consider it a claim
A probably a bit political for this topic, but most companies are allowed to lie about most things. Only a few things that they’re not allowed to lie about.
And even when they are not on paper, they are in fact.
and for those few things they’re not allowed to lie about they pull out every trick in the book to come as close to lying as possible without outright doing it.
Because there are no consequences for them

Most open to making money at the expense of security.
"“What they were telling me was counterintuitive to everything I’d heard at Microsoft about ‘customer first,’” Harris said. “Now they’re telling me it’s not ‘customer first,’ it’s actually ‘business first.’”
DiCola, Harris’ then-supervisor, told ProPublica the race to dominate the market for new and high-growth areas like the cloud drove the decisions of Microsoft’s product teams. “That is always like, ‘Do whatever it frickin’ takes to win because you have to win.’ Because if you don’t win, it’s much harder to win it back in the future. Customers tend to buy that product forever.”
Who in their right mind would ever think that any publicly traded company is consumer first? Their only goals are short term profit followed long term profits. Everything else is in pursuit of those two things.
enshitification cycle: First good for customers, then they abuse their customers in favour of their business customers, then they abuse those businesses to claw back everything for themselves.
They are on step 2.
