Sounds cool. And also like an attack vector.

Oh god, i know thats not possible and here come the startups to pitch it.

Wow. That’s super sad.

Goddamn microsoft. Get it together.

Very good. My TL;DR take:

The American and German approach of letting incumbents build monopolies, allowing wasteful overbuild, and refusing to regulate natural monopolies is often called a ‘free market.’

But it’s not free. And it’s not a market.

True capitalism requires competition. But infrastructure is a natural monopoly. If you treat it like a regular consumer product, you don’t get competition. You get waste, or you get a monopoly.

The Swiss model understands this. They built the infrastructure once, as a shared, neutral asset, and then let the market compete on the services that run over it.

That’s not anti-capitalist. It’s actually better capitalism. It directs competition to where it adds value, not to where it destroys it.

The free market doesn’t mean letting powerful incumbents do whatever they want. It means creating the conditions where genuine competition can thrive.

While I agree in principle, the user must understand that all web searches (in general, not just in this case) are going to be tracked unless explicit steps are taken.

Spotlight searching the web is stupid, though.

If you leave it on by default, yeah.

Go through your settings, people. One-by-one.

Not allowing notifications has been SOP since the beginning.

Go through your settings. There’s almost certainly some app doing something you don’t prefer.

In Idrassi’s case, he said he is able to push new updates to Linux and macOS users unhindered, but the majority of his users that run Windows cannot currently receive updates.

So, no problem then.

These are the people who don’t understand the meaning of Liberal as most lemmy commenters use it. It’s why it’s so dissonant.

More proof of this stellar company’s incredible jenius.

I mean we were saying this in the early 90s too but. Yeah.

Very cool.

Now someone please tell my entire extended circle of friends and family how to reset their password. (Fair warning, you’ll probably have to explain that yes, they have a password, first.)

Good point. Back to the drawing board.
