Flickr protests against Microsoft

Photo: Steve Keys on Flickr. Some rights reserved.

Flickr has probably the prettiest anti-Microsoft protest right now; the site is awash with photos of expletives, doctored Microsoft logos and bid bad NOs. Check out the groups 'Microsoft: keep your evil grubby hands off our Flickr' and 'If Microsoft acquires Flickr [Yahoo] I'm dropping my account'.

They are a feisty bunch, true, but I seem to remember just as much protest when Yahoo bought Flickr.
