in the public offices of the United States or of the several states; as, for

These are in general evidence of the facts they contain or recite. 1 Greenl.

A pair of Microsoft internal strategy memoranda leaked to ESR in late 1998
that confirmed everybody's paranoia about the current Evil Empire. These
documents praised the technical excellence of Linux and outlined a
counterstrategy of attempting to lock in customers by “de-commoditizing”
Internet protocols and services. They were extensively cited on the
Internet and in the press and proved so embarrassing that Microsoft PR
barely said a word in public for six months afterwards.
