Microsoft say Macedonia petition

Plese sign the Microsoft say Macedonia petition / Ве молиме потпишете се на петицијата Микрософт речи Македонија

To: Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, Washington, USA

Microsoft, we respect your name, your owners and your products, by using the name that YOU want to be your trademark, you have the right to it. But why it is so hard for you to respect someone's basic human right to be called by the name he/she has chosen? Just as well as I don't have the right to change someone's name, no one has the right to change mine. So, please respect that. My country's name is Macedonia, not FYROM! Microsoft, say Macedonia!

The USA has recognized Macedonia under its constitutional name the Republic of Macedonia. The interim name (Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia) should not be used by commercial and non-commercial entities based in the USA (amongst others) for legally obligated purposes. This is a direct contravention of US Foreign Policy. Microsoft headquarters are located in Redmond, Washington, USA. Microsoft should comply with said policy.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
