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.
Reminds me of Google trying to force everyone with any kind of Google account to use Google+. If you had an account on YouTube, it’d convert that to a Google account, automatically create a Google+ account for it, and start posting your activities to it by itself. I know a ton of people who had active Google+ accounts they didn’t even know about.
