Microsoft needs another good antitrust lawsuit. They're so aggressive about pushing their products.
I haven't heard many other people complain about it so it was probably a very short term thing, but I'll never forget when they updated windows defender to identify the chrome installer as highest-threat malware so that its download would be blocked, and if you forced the download windows would instantly delete the installer for your own protection.
So does Google imo.
Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta. Pretty much all the big tech companies really need a visit from the FTC.
How is Meta acting anti competitive? I am not defending them, just actually curious. For Microsoft, Alphabet and Apple it makes sense because they control the platforms.
