Wait until you find out that the OS fucks with your browser and makes edge automatically launch at startup without your permission. Unless you are living in the UK.Microsoft seems willing to screw with your OS as much as they are legally allowed to.https://t.co/bpuz1mvmoO https://t.co/0EYQUtcgGc

Windows is installing spyware on my computer and forcing AI tools into my face that I don't want or need. They installed Microsoft Edge that autoboots at launch.I know so many who were unwittingly forced to upgrade from 10 to 11.https://t.co/hw9LDw8Cxn

When you install Windows 11 on a new pc, the Default is that you are all but forced to get a Microsoft Account. And that account is now automatically backing up your documents to OneDrive without asking.https://t.co/zs79ubhoDA

The default path for installing windows is having an AI scan your documents. Do we trust them to do this?> "We're now proud to say that Copilot in OneDrive will begin to roll out in the summer of 2024."https://t.co/RD5abCTzBY

"Translations from Baidu, Tencent, and NetEase silently omit triggering sentences. Alibaba was the only provider to display an error message when sensitive text is inputted, but it will still translate content once the user removes the triggering text."
