Current-era Microsoft continuing to push the boundaries of consent.

Microsoft Edge is a good browser but for some reason Microsoft keeps trying to shove it down everyone’s throat and make it more difficult to use rivals like Chrome or Firefox. Microsoft has now started notifying IT admins that it will force Outlook and Teams to ignore the default web browser on Windows and open links in Microsoft Edge instead.

i'll stop using internet if firefox dies.

The internet needs an independent browser like Firefox.

The big issue with Firefox is that most of Mozilla's funding still comes from Google, via an agreement that makes Google the default search engine in Firefox. Google essentially have the power to shut down Mozilla if they want to.

I wouldn't mind if they started a subscription model that makes them enough to keep the thing running and be completely independent from Google.

[–] 0ddysseus 8 points 2 years ago

Totally agreed. I would definitely pay to use FF, even a hateful subscription, if the alternative was to shut down. I think enough people are of the same opinion that its not going to be funding that kills it, but a buyout and kill off

@dan But they can’t because that would mean one less competitor and so FCC can use that to sue them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I can definitely see the antitrust viewpoint. Would the FCC really force Google to keep funding one of their competitors though?
