So dumb that you couldn't even have imagine it.
Coming from a company that keeps justifying taking control away from the user for "security reasons" that's precious. I bet these assholes will make that feature opt-out only next.
It never was about security, it always was about forcing stupid features down the users throats to please the company's corporate branch.
I'll just sit back and enjoy the show as Windows 11's users commission that their files for corrupted or deleted by a "hallucinating" AI agent.
Slight refinement to your comment:
It was t about the features. It was about harvesting your data.
Agree 100% that Microsoft doesn't give a squirt of fucking piss about your security.
They'll make a whole show of it to the extent they have to for their shareholders and legal requirements but beyond that their philosophy is: fuck you
Next update: opt-out.
Later: Somehow a "bug" enabled it again.
Later again: It's now built into OS, you can't disable it.
... so, never?
Don't have such a low opinion of your ability to understand things. The fact that you're here on the Fediverse shows you're able to learn new stuff that's not necessarily "easy."
