Some updates on the morged saga: 1. Microsoft has reached out last week, apologized, and corrected the Learn page — it now features my original diagram with proper attribution.

2. At the same time, I’ve made the CC BY-SA license on the image more explicit on my end (it always was, but it was buried at the bottom of the article). 3. Microsoft mentioned they’ll be putting out a public statement on what happened, which I’m curious to read (as you all are I suspect).

From my side, this has resolved the matter in a satisfactory way, and I’m totally fine with the outcome.

One more thing however: I’m seeing an X community and some kind of coin/token claiming to collect money on my behalf. I have absolutely nothing to do with this. It’s a scam. Please DO NOT send anyone money.
