Hey Europe
–America
Maybe if you all started voting…? For real, dudes, you need to wake up.
Be honest. Do you think either of their 2 parties will spend any time going after their own big tech like this? Big tech has their fingers deep into politics pockets.
There are more than 2 parties.
First. Past. The. Post.
We are trapped
Yeees! Edge goes first, followed by Bing
What about Windows 10?
How do I, an outlander, get away with removing above bloatware?
Can I login to my VPN, set the server to, say NL and get to delete it?
With all the DMA stuff going around I hope the EU take some real steps to Linux and FOSS in general. I mean come on, I can be root by design and fuckup my system if I want to - this is real freedom, gentlemen 🇪🇺
This probably only applies to the Windows N version?
Maybe, but the N version was in response of another regulation that was less stringent in enforcement.
If they only do it in the N version, all other versions become prohibited to sell in the EU. I’d guess this is all versions, and the EU region lock is enforced differently.
Windows 11 only… interesting.
“The European Commission has exempted Bing and Microsoft Edge from DMA oversight due to their non-dominant market position.”
I wonder if Microsoft’s legal department advised Nadella to abide by the spirit of the law (despite the exemption) to prevent possible headaches in the future.
This is 👍 news. I don’t use Edge. Google is my search engine, not Bing. 1 may change Edge’s default search engine, but I never bothered.
Microsoft has been betting big on ai. They may be OK with “competition”, “fair playing field” or “pro-choice” things if ai will give them billions in profit in the future.
It’s 👍 that alternativeto.net is still around. I’ve been going there to find alternate programs.
