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.

    The bitwarden thing I agree with, but I got fed up with Firefox not working correctly for some webpages I work with because let’s be real, it has such a low user base that web devs don’t optimizer for it anymore and some even deploy Firefox breaking changes because the is analytics show that it doesn’t even matter.

    If the adblocker stops working correctly though? It’s FF time again baby.
