We're two years away from the death of Windows 10, and Windows 11 is still not a viable upgrade for many people.

    Windows 11 soon gets more AI integration. Scanning all your files and content of files, this is no conspiracy. Deleting your Microsoft account if it detects misbehavior, even if you never shared this private info with anyone. You’ll also not be able to program anything you want anymore, because if the AI detects it’s possibly malicious, it will delete your Microsoft account.

    It’s probably a lot of fun if you have stuff on your onedrive or use outlook.

    Why is there so little outrage about this? I hope it doesn’t release for win10 or is blockable.

      I have not seen anything about Microsoft accounts getting deleted for AI falsely identifying something as malicious. Windows Defender and OneDrive do scan your files for malware, yeah.

        I linked sources.

        Edit: so apparently people try to hide it or why the downvotes?

          Those links just say that illegal content uploaded to Microsoft services might get your account suspended, which is how pretty much every online service works. There’s a higher bar than “misbehavior”.

              That’s a video editorializing the article that was already editorializing the Microsoft support pages. That’s just a game of telephone with everyone in the process trying to make it sound scarier than it actually is.

                If you added your Microsoft account to your windows, then you use their services and therefore agree to the new SLAs, to do whatever they please. It’s vague on purpose, to give them maximum freedom to do so. That they scan your uploads is nothing new.

                  You’re just saying how most TOA’s are…they’re hardly ever enforced that way, just because of the publicity it would give them. And most TOA’s aren’t even legally binding and this is definitely something that would face litigation.

                  If your issue with it is the vagueness, you might as well get off the grid now. Most TOA’s are written that way.

          Sources that don’t actually prove anything aren’t good sources…
