Funny how MS comes out of its regulatory probationary period and immediately Windows turns into a massive ad for MS services that go out of their way to make your life miserable.
Something to keep in mind when complaining about the highly limited, and yet basically only, consumer friendly EU directives to the companies that our entire lives depend upon, even if the directives may not be perfect.
- nimbius 3y agonormally id be pretty unmoved seeing microsoft pander in-browser. For the last thirty years their strategy has been to "dominate" browsers by hook or by crook. This ones really unique in that microsoft not only doesnt acknowledge they were the ones who changed your browsers search setting without your consent, but have the brass to threaten to disable the plugin you installed entirely if you dont let them take over your browsers search option (wallpapers and the entirety of bing search? really?) So what we're admitting is the entire guise of a plugin was a thinly veiled excuse to steamroll my search setting to begin with? Clearly the solution here is to mark the bing plugin as malware until corrective action is taken to respect browser settings in the first place.
