Microsoft says it’s starting to test ads inside the Start menu on Windows 11. The software maker will use the Recommended section of the Start menu, which usually shows file recommendations, to suggest apps from the Microsoft Store. Trillion dollar corporation is so poor. They need more money by selling your data to the highest bidder. wtf? #privacy #security https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/12/24128640/microsoft-windows-11-start-menu-ads-app-recommendations

@falken @marco_m_aus_f @nixCraft @avlcharlie Well, time to set your Windows region to Europe.
@falken @nixCraft @avlcharlie True. For now. Let's see what happens after that. Maybe I'll finally get my Enterprise Linux Desktop. Not that that would be so difficult, from the tech side of things...
