Re: Ransomware

Um ... the MSOffice formats ARE propietary! Were you around for the switch from Office 95 to Office 97?

Do you realize now the work that must be done by other software companies to bring the MS formats into their programs?

The Open Document Format (odf) is truly non-propietary.

I've used LibreOffice and its predecessors since 1999.
