Microsoft is slowly making the transition from Windows being a OS to Windows being an Ad platform.


Slowly? LOL. That has been the direction full throttle since the day Windows 10 was released.


It already is an ad platform. They want to turn it into the surveillance platform of choice for governments, businesses and law enforcement alike.

Windows is already a privacy farce. The OS and 3rd party drivers capture a large chunk of what you do. Imagine having everything you do in one tidy location that can and will be used against you at the drop of a hat.


Slowly? It happened 10 years ago.


Even tough I like to be on Microsoft ecosystem, I have to acknowledge that Azure is the new golden goose in terms of Azure OSes, now that we are back into timesharing.

And Windows suffers from that.


That is relevant to the Recall feature how?
