alt Hacker NewsI recently helped my mother-in-law configure a new Windows 11 laptop. I knew Microsoft did this, I was deliberately looking to avoid OneDrive, and it _still_ burned me. It silently uploaded all of her personal documents that I had transferred from an older computer. I was livid.
Microsoft has permanently lost me as a customer. Every friend and family member who listens will upgrade to something else.
Same for me. It was slow but now I've fully joined the hate parade. I only use MS products as necessary to support my business.
