I wonder if this affects any of the telemetry systems they use to send user data back to the mothership (Microsoft servers)? I haven't looked into it in a while but there used to be a powershell script to disable a lot of it in the registry.

I always hear people complaining about ads on their win 11 and it confuses me, as I've never seen a single ad in my win 11 install.

In what section are the ads showing up?

I wish Apple would let me uninstall Apple Music and stop media keys opening it by default.

Just in time for Windows 10 going out of support. I guess the next time Windows nags my wife about updating to 11 I can tell her to go ahead.
