"At first glance, the FSF and the Commission attacks on Microsoft appear to be unrelated. But the common thread is this: the attacks are based on a lack of faith that consumer demand will lead a market to where consumers want it to be. It is based on a faulty assumption that a company can use its intellectual property to harm competition rather than fuel it."

And the GP expressed his disagreement. What's wrong with that? Since Liebeler published his opinion online he should expect people to have opinions of their own about it.
The poster called the editorial a "conflict of interest" -- which it is clearly NOT: Liebeler is actively lobbying on behalf of MSFT and others, and the publication was an editorial. Where's the conflict (except in the poster's mind)?
