acts surprised
Ok, I won’t update anymore my Windows…
Like it wouldn’t.
Please, it’s 2023. Corporarions have totally embraced the “you are the product” model. They offer you a service on their infrastructure (“the cloud”) on their terms, which they can modify and terminate on will. Then they make money by selling your data, showing you ads and using your data to personalize those ads so that you are more likely to click on them.
Shame or ethics? Please, it’s money that makes the world go round. Ads in every app! Ads on the web! Ads in every corner of the city! Ads on public transport! More ads! Even more ads! No square centimeter of physical and virtual space left unused!
It’s really pathetic.
I removed copilot the instant I saw it. I don’t need any more Microsoft online shit built into my OS, thanks. (I also use Arch, but Windows kernel anti-cheat)
Sigh, one more thing for the list …
“Didn’t you have ads in the 21st century?”
“Well sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio. And in magazines. And movies. And at ball games and on buses and milk cartons and t-shirts and written on the sky. Oh, and in our operating systems. But not in dreams. No siree!”
