Nah dude. It’s totally fair to not pay for snake oil. Microsoft is doing a good thing here and you’re just shitting on it. It’s easy to sit on your high horse here, but how much have you paid into carbon sequestering? And would you pay some unproven company a huge stack of money up front on a pinky swear?
I'm not saying it's bad, I agree that it's a good thing! It's just nothing even close to a "remarkably big bet."
