This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
My suggestion is to download something like Windows Privacy Dashboard and disabling/uninstalling as much telemetry options as possible.
I've never got that kind of ad push, so i have to ask where you got it? Was it from using the search bar beside the start button? If so, maybe completely disabling and uninstalling Cortana might fix it.
Step one -- install Linux
~~Step two -- install Firefox~~
Oh, I almost forgot that most Linux distos come with Firefox pre-installed!
How about providing actual help instead of jerking of to your favourite OS?
I get that the comment is almost surely circlejerk, but it is also honestly the only real answer to OP's question, isn't it? To switch OS?
So it's kind of hard to get mad at their comment when it's the only viable option. Is your problem with Linux or is it the fact that it brings you anxiety to know MS is in control of you? What if we substitute another OS for "Linux"? Does that make you feel any better?
I'm honestly not trying to be a jerk; these are honest questions. That's probably saying more than for OP, though; they, of course, knew the answer before they asked.
use a service like o&o shutup that'll cripple this among other bloat.
Wait, you had this WHILE using chrome on win10? Jesus
The comments are weird. How often do you even see this? I feel like I remember it once and hit don't switch and thats it. Not sure why you keep getting it, but I also don't use edge so maybe that is why. I would imagine if there is a way to stop it it's in settings somewhere or possibly a local group policy maybe.
Switch to linux
Write a complaint to the CMA about Microsoft’s anti-competitive and anti-consumer behavior.
But I actually prefer Bing over Google nowadays...
Also, at least they pay me for my data.
I've been using bing for the past 6 months or so, ever since the chat gpt integration.
In 6 months, I've earned enough points to get a $5 taco bell gift certificate.
Overall, the quality of results that I get are... Not as good as google. I find myself frequently re-searching things on Google because I actually do not find what I'm looking for on bing. And then on Google, the perfect result is the first or second listing.
Now, Google is integrating bard into searches. Sometimes it sucks, yes. But it is basically just as good as the bing chat gpt thing. So... Yeah. I'm going to go back to Google search soon.
I must be the fortieth to advise you to install Linux.
