- devsda 11mo agoMS online account was optional at a time but where are we now ? With MS track record, its not a question of if, but when. The outrage here will probably not stop MS but it does signal that it is not a welcome move and it hopefully stops them from doing more bad things. Even if few people realize that they don't have to tolerate this and if it make them move to alternatives, its worth it.
