Yikes, whenever Microsoft tries to placate people after getting caught doing shady shit...It always feels like an admission. It makes me happy to be on Linux, I don't have to worry about this bullshit. Though, I am now side-eyeing my Xbox because if they are doing this on PC, it's a matter of time before Xbox is infected by their AI garbage.
Just got two more people to switch to Linux today thanks to garbage like this. They're doing my evangelizing for me.
