Spent the day setting up a Windows 11 test device, including Chrome, WSL, and Docker Desktop. Every step of the way involved opt-outs, for privacy, tracking, and larded, unnecessary AI. The defaults were all set to benefit the vendors instead of the user.
It wasn’t just Microsoft. Everyone else wanted their pound of flesh.
