Turns out it's not actually wrong, it's simply a word I had never heard before
today:
vitiating present
participle of vi·ti·ate (Verb)
Verb
Spoil or impair the quality or
efficiency of: "programs vitiated by red tape".
Destroy or impair the
legal validity of.
I figured I would post this to spare anyone
else the hassle of looking it up, because I had initially assumed that it was a
typo of 'violating', but decided to check first, so the person who needed
correcting was me.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

“alUMnia occurs twice in the following paragraph, when it should be
“alMUnia:
“That's 84 million browsers that
were not IE being downloaded by users who otherwise presumably would have used
IE. After all, if they already knew about the other browsers and knew how to
download them, they wouldn't need a browser screen. Cynics, including me, might
wonder if that is what caused the alleged "technical error" that erased the
browser screen for the next 14 or so months. And yet, when doing EU Commission
math, which may have come from Microsoft one might imagine, all things
considered, Mr. Alumnia says that in the 14 months from May 2011
to July 2012, when the "technical error" was revealed to the EU Commission,
"approximately 15.3 million users did not see the ballot as intended," Keizer
says Alumnia said.” [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
