E isto é uma estratégia oficial da Microsoft. No caso Comes vs Microsoft
descobriu-se as recomendações oficiais aos astroturfers:
Channel of Information, On-line Forums
* Monitor the relevant Usenet groups at all times
* Write well
* Be exceedingly formal and polite
o It is very easy to give offense
o Always assume that you are wrong; ask others to explain it to you
o Developers are impressed by clear, precise, polite communication
o Don’t sound like a prig
That's from Microsoft's leaked (and internal) documents. "Smith" fits the
description of "Microsoft AstroTurfers".

~~ Best of wishes
"The government is not trying to destroy Microsoft, it’s simply seeking to
compel Microsoft to obey the law. It’s quite revealing that Mr. Gates equates
the two."
