I've had to endure dirty tricks, even threats and fabricated accusations from Microsoft. It's not a whole lot of fun.

Thankfully no black vans or ominous packages in the mail (yet).

Did (or could) you blog somewhere about any details, how these things happened and how you dealt with these tricks, threats and accusations? I reckon it would be very helpful for others in the industry to learn from your experience and at the very least get an understanding of how these things occur, how the other party operates and how you can deal with such situations in an appropriate and self-preserving manner (we often come up short in this important area, as we focus on the technical side of things). Thanks (also for all the hard work that you do!)

Not sure if there’s a more detailed account elsewhere.
