That article was refuted by Microsoft, as indicated in this article they posted the next day. Other media sources are stating that the reporter received inaccurate information and the article, based on a myth, should not have been written.

I caught the news in real-time and watched the complaints progress. It all ended well but the incident certainly didn't help Microsoft's image.
