I literally cannot think of a better punchline
Edit: See it for yourself
I skipped briefly through the entire video and everything I've heard and seen was absolute bullshit bingo.

Yes. It attracts a lot of viruses and other nasties.
Open to everything except the concept of unix.
In a void, anything can the "The most ____"
Open? Sure, definitely open.... To vulnerabilities
Open windows with no screens to keep the bugs out.
Sometimes the elites poke fun at us with obviously untrue, absurd statements. It's the equivalent of grabbing someone's fist, pushing it in their face, and saying "stop punching yourself".
Them corporate elites really love tongue-in-cheek backhanded statements such as that.
Without walls, you wouldn't need windows.
Open to what exactly..?
OPEN TO WHAT!?
Open to data collection opportunities
Infection, zero days, and data collection. TOTALLY open to those.
Open to advertisers
They're probably talking about their customers opening their wallets
Nice profile picture!
Everyone but the user.

Didn't they call it "the most secure" a while ago?
Why are they allowed to openly lie?
In the case of marketing, it's just considered an opinion, mostly because if anything like that is ever put forth to a Judge, there's 900 odd ways to loophole it.
"We meant our assholes, your honor; as open as they come."
"We meant uhm... accepting."
It could be called puffery. A claim so ridiculous that no reasonable person would consider it a claim
A probably a bit political for this topic, but most companies are allowed to lie about most things. Only a few things that they're not allowed to lie about.
and for those few things they're not allowed to lie about they pull out every trick in the book to come as close to lying as possible without outright doing it.

Right after that slide the guy is talking about how Microsoft is "committed to remaining the most reliable and secure platform"...
Yeah they're all full of shit
Their official marketing is to call Windows 11 "the most secure version of Windows ever" or something along those lines. They definitely use "the most secure" in their marketing, but I think they do it in a way where it is only in reference to previous consumer versions of Windows if you actually parse out what is being said.

You just lie, lie, lie, so many times that you actually believe your own shit

Bitch I can't even find basic settings cuz they are so hidden in sub menus
I'm no programmer or UX designer but I can imagine what a mess things are on the dev side
As an admin it gets so much worse. Twice a year your admin portal gets renamed, redesigned, merged with and/or split from another one, or removed, and all those changes are done halfway.
Which means some settings are only on the old version and others only on the new. Then the old one is discontinued even though the new one doesn't have all its functions, yet.
So you completely rely on Powershell. But wait, there's 2 incompatible versions of it now.
I'm currently thinking about a career change, after reading in Microsoft's official documentation that you need to install the new version of Powershell, import the beta version of several commandlets and then run a long script provided by them, only to keep every user on your org from creating their own Teams teams.
And their newest feature is allowing every user to put in their credit card info and buy MS products in the company domain without running it by IT. It's called "self service", enabled by default, and you have to click on a slider to disable it individually for every. single. product. Microsoft. offers.
Jesus Christ.
I've been doing linux admin and honestly I haven't been looking back. My breaking point was Microsoft pushing a kb that rebooted domain controllers for no reason.

Most open to making money at the expense of security.
"“What they were telling me was counterintuitive to everything I’d heard at Microsoft about ‘customer first,’” Harris said. “Now they’re telling me it’s not ‘customer first,’ it’s actually ‘business first.’”
DiCola, Harris’ then-supervisor, told ProPublica the race to dominate the market for new and high-growth areas like the cloud drove the decisions of Microsoft’s product teams. “That is always like, ‘Do whatever it frickin’ takes to win because you have to win.’ Because if you don’t win, it’s much harder to win it back in the future. Customers tend to buy that product forever.”

Open for exploits and surveillance
When one backdoor closes, three more open.
Open as in most leaks?
I had just hit the button on a recording session last night, and a fucking full page "ARE YOU PREPARED FOR THE EOL OF WINDOWS 10!!" (paraphrased) popped up over my DAW. Yeah, I'm prepared alright Microsoft. I've got a flash drive with Linux ready to install if you keep pulling shit like this. It's going to suck because a lot of audio software developers are garbage with Linux support, but if Windows is just as garbage, there's no reason not to migrate.
