This is one thing that stops me from paying for software from a non-free
company such as Microsoft. There is no way to know how the money will
be spent. I'd like to know if my money will pay to bribe officials,
to steal technical secrets from competitors, intimidation, ...
Perhaps Microsoft could explain this better on their webpage?

NOTE: This is meant to be a joke. I hope I don't offend.
