“Microsoft forced to stop forcing Windows 11 users into Edge in EU countries”, would be a more descriptive title.

Can they do the same for Google recommending Chrome?

Yes, they are doing both. The list of entities covered by the DMA dropped today.

At least google sites recommending Chrome are free to use. Microsoft is forcing is it’s useless browser to an audience via an OS. Which they paid for. Two huge no-no’s.

MS should just quit the facade and make it free.

I mean it more or less already is. I’m running an unregistered W10 Pro and the “activate license” thing only comes up occasionally.

But the multinational hyper-conglomerates are our friends and the most efficient use of capital!
