⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Repeated choices to serve their business over their customers": Mozilla accuses Microsoft of using 'dark patterns' to force its Copilot AI on Windows 11 users⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
No shit. Even opening a Word document now requires me to close two separate Copilot interfaces that open automatically and capture focus: one that auto-summarises the document, and one that wants me to use it to edit the document.

This is at work, of course. At home I switched to Linux rather than “upgrade” to Win 11.

They’re going to end up in “the only tool we have is a hammer” territory soon.
