No, because most people stick with the default option regardless.

I’m just trying to understand my our point… You argue they have to do this because people won’t bother on their own… Then proceed to back your statement with an example where MS added garbage and people don’t bother or can’t figure to remove it…
I mean, you and I known MS could simply ask… They don’t because they want that slide that says x many million users of Copilot…

I didn’t argue with that.

That doesn’t mean they can’t… At most it means is less advantageous for their goals… Screw the user
