I mean it makes sense. Both M$ and Apple (and Google with vanilla Android) are quite surveillance-centric, it only makes sense to try to keep the population under a watchful eye to stay ahead of any potential challenges to their authority. They hate the thought of people doing anything digitally that they can't keep tabs on.
