Current-era Microsoft continuing to push the boundaries of consent.

Microsoft Edge is a good browser but for some reason Microsoft keeps trying to shove it down everyone’s throat and make it more difficult to use rivals like Chrome or Firefox. Microsoft has now started notifying IT admins that it will force Outlook and Teams to ignore the default web browser on Windows and open links in Microsoft Edge instead.

        This is how they get you. Some bullshit agreement with a corporation that doesn’t give a fuck besides the price tag, and they hope you’ll eventually get used to the mediocrity and use it for personal stuff too.

      Outlook is a thing? News to me.

      Sarcasm asides, I use Thunderbird. I’m convinced it was the correct choice now.
