“Defaults are the only thing that matter,” he said, “in terms of changing user behavior.” He called the idea that it’s easy to switch “bogus.”
Leta see if the feds remember that quote in the next Microsoft antitrust hearing.

Doesn’t the fact that every Windows PC ships with Edge and yet Chrome has 70% market share on desktop make a case against the idea that “defaults are everything”?

PCs had been shipping with Chrome as the default for years due to agreements with OEMs.
ALSO, things did get bad enough for a few years that the general public did at least partly realize the IE sucked and that was part of the initial migration.
But now Edge is aggressively placed and it is becoming more prevalent despite the general public knowing zero advantages to it over Chrome.
