This paints a pretty bleak picture.

I am curious, however, what Microsoft donated to those in support of the various issues here. For example, one statement presented is:

>"[...] Microsoft made political donations totaling $46,500 to 18 of the 65 representatives voting against it."

How many of the representatives voting for it received donations, and what did those donations total to?

I can't help but wonder if they are donating to a number of representatives and this report is just being selective, or if things are really as two-faced as the article presents.

You can go look it up in public records. It takes a fair amount of effort, so I'm not going to do it for you, because I am lazy.
Indeed, I imagine it would take a serious amount of effort. Thanks for compiling what you have.
