Now it’s kinda redundant to say, but Microsoft is obviously spying on us. It’s terrifying that they’re doing this to us Firefox users. I wonder how they found out that I’m using stackoverflow. Are they constantly sniffing our network traffic, or monitoring each texts displayed on the screen?
“Generic” you say !
when Copilot first came out I gave it a go, I asked it to tell me a joke, and it spit out this : what do you call a user who uses Firefox, Bitwarden, ProtonVPN ?.. A Microsoft Edge-case [ laughing emoji ] 😅
After that I went on a debate with Copilot, to it, it seemed weird that a user would skip over Edge ( which the best browser ) and go for Firefox or any other browser, I Explained to it that this is my preference, and I explained it’s not cool to assume that all users would settle for Edge simply because you put it there and they should be able to uninstall it, to my surprise it said “Yes they should be able to”, however it struggled to understand the concept of Privacy, wait, it doesn’t understand it at all, when I asked how do you know what a regular Windows user uses, in order for me to be a special case, it went crazy, started searching online, reassuring me that it doesn’t has access to my personal data, that it doesn’t have statistics on Windows users… Etc
That felt so cringy to say the least, and all that happened in less than 7 questions ( you’re allowed for 10 questions before you have to sign in )
I think they built that from the ground up to be a spying machine, they’re basically improving their spying capabilities with each release 🙂👍
So maybe it’s generic, but I don’t expect that to be the case in the upcoming releases
