I’m not quite sure why there hasn’t been more regulationary or legislative pushback to MS’s antics this time. One would expect the EU at least to not have a very favorable view on this stuff.
- superultra 2y agoI think it's a combination of two things - one is that we are in a monopoly friendly environment gilded age for business that was not there in the 90s, and two is that MS was an easy target in the 90s because they were really the only target. But if you're the US government, if you go after MS you have to go after like 6 other companies for effectively doing the same thing even if it's not OS level. It's just not possible. Digital business has won by deluge. I mean, throwing co-pilot into everything is literally the 2024 version of inlcuding IE on everything in the 90s and MS does it with impunity because they can.
