According to the latest reports, Windows 11 has made an independent choice by automatically turning on OneDrive folder backup for Desktop, Pictures, Documents, Music, and Video folders without your permission.

This action from Microsoft fits into a larger pattern where big tech companies cleverly (or not so cleverly) promote their services and subscriptions to users. It isn’t only about Microsoft; there have been instances of Google doing something similar with Google Photos and its storage plans.
Keep an eye on your settings, particularly when you have just finished setting up a new device or updating your operating system. Companies such as Microsoft constantly seek methods to link users with their environments—sometimes without permission.
Looks like I’m installing Linux tonight.
Gotta get scrapping all that data to train copilot+++
Vote this up higher. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if everything ends up in their models.

This one never really gets old anymore.
Install Linux already, just get it over with.
People usually don’t use linux because or app compatibility ik wine exists but it just doesn’t not work with all apps
Most apps have open source versions which work better anyway. I’ve been on a Linux desktop literally for the past 20+ years now, never looked back
Ngl I have been using some of the open source alternatives on linux now
I stopped calling them alternatives because that implies that its somehow a “B” version, less than “the original”. Many times these lesser know softwares are superior to their closed source counterparts
Oh alr But some or them are krita
Rapist mentality.
It is shit but it’s easy to turn off.
