It's hard to determine when Windows Phone died?

How about when they killed off support for business using Windows Mobile alongside when they re-wrote Windows Phone 7 to Windows Phone 8 and needed developers to re-write their app a second time? With no businesses willing to write apps for it after 2 re-writes in 2 years, I think that added towards killing it off.

And even more frightening, they've watched Wargames and can build on it. This is serious man!!!!

Re: Blame the victim

Possibly. But any time a non-western country advances in a strategic technology either way the U.S. will find a way to stamp them out.
