> All of this modernization means very little if Microsoft is going to continue to ruin the Windows experience with malware-like Bing prompts and ads. I’ve been particularly vocal about this, and it sounds like Microsoft might be listening. “I think that’s an ongoing journey for us. It is front and center for me, making sure we are winning Windows customers through great experiences at the end of the day,” says Davuluri. “We want them to enjoy Windows, we want them to want it. So I hear you on it.”
Translation: we already replaced the guy who introduced those ads. They were launched anyway to test if people would blindly accept ads. Now that we know you're awake, ads can be removed and blamed on the previous regime. Please double-check the ad removal and status of adjacent Overton Windows.
- wkat4242 2y agoThis "modernization" is all about selling cloud services. 3D rendering in the cloud, Windows 365... This stuff is why they are forcing Microsoft accounts on us and why they are bombarding us with ads. It's not going to stop. It's Microsoft's war on personal computing in order to make us tenants of their kingdom. In their vision we will own nothing and we will be happy, whether we like it or not. Happy little rent-paying peasants.
