I installed Windows 11. A couple hours later, I was horrified to find that Windows 11 uploaded all files on my desktop to Microsoft. There's no warning or opt-in. OneDrive is set up by default to silently copy all your files. How is that legal?
- cjcampbell 3y agoWindows 10 had the same behavior. MacOS has also done this by default for years now. I don’t say this to excuse the behavior. On the contrary, I’ve seen many a small business owner run afoul of compliance requirements because they aren’t aware of the default behavior. Slurping data to consumer-grade cloud services ought to require informed consent.
