When totally biased news stories, press releases and the like containing such exaggerated claims, bordering on outright falsehood, are published and amplified, it becomes easier and easier to discredit science, scientists and generate fake news on other more important topics. Sound familiar?
Let's be clear: Microsoft has not demonstrated a single qubit (topological or otherwise) or even any irrefutable proof of Majoranas in its device.

Microsoft claims quantum-computing breakthrough — but some physicists are sceptical
The tech giant aims to make ‘topological’ quantum computers that will reach useful scales faster than competing technologies.
