    “The European Commission has exempted Bing and Microsoft Edge from DMA oversight due to their non-dominant market position.”

    I wonder if Microsoft’s legal department advised Nadella to abide by the spirit of the law (despite the exemption) to prevent possible headaches in the future.

    This is 👍 news. I don’t use Edge. Google is my search engine, not Bing. 1 may change Edge’s default search engine, but I never bothered.

    Microsoft has been betting big on ai. They may be OK with “competition”, “fair playing field” or “pro-choice” things if ai will give them billions in profit in the future.

    It’s 👍 that alternativeto.net is still around. I’ve been going there to find alternate programs.
