Tbf, Apple has gotten away with this sort of gig for years now, so I guess MS is just taking off the gloves and going "fuck it" and doing what Apple do. Ubisoft is hated for their "you'll own nothing and like it", while clinging to their stupid "AAAA" mantra, and they don't seem to be backing down from their double take on insanity. Honestly, I think this is now the new norm for companies to just stop acting like they care and now just charge out the arse and take you for granted fully, because to be real, ppl are still going to buy this stuff, still get suckered into it (we're already seeing it on a daily basis in regards to multiple account signs up and the ppl defending that bullshit without second guessing themselves). |
Apple gets away with it because most of their userbase are fanaticals about the brand and also because there's little room for third party accessories. On the PC side of the world, people don't give a f*ck about the MSoft brand more often than not and there's a ton of third party accessory makers ready to ship a similar if not sometimes better product for the same price or cheaper.

uh-huh, totally MS, we totally need co-pilot AI to even use an upscaler, but in a totally invasive way to make any sort of sense... They're really bad at hiding how badly they want ppl to use this Ai and to break down the final pillars of privacy left on their modern OS. |
What amazes me is how MSoft doesn't seem to realize that the more they push the whole Copilot and AI sh*t in Windows, the more likely is that the EU will knock on their door with regulations and probably hefty fines given that it won't be the first time they have to put MSoft in its place.
Please excuse my bad English.
