Wait what? How is Gates seen positively? Microsoft was the worst tech company under him and did so much awful stuff

Most people know 2 things about Bill Gates - he's rich, and he donates a lot of money. They don't think about it any more than that, and they certainly aren't going to research anything about it, so they consider him "one of the good ones"
