MS' Satya Nadella is forgetting the rule "The customer is always right." He is trying to force customers to a product they didn't ask for or really need along with a lot of other customer unfriendly issues like nagging to use onedrive subscriptions and forcing to sign in to a MS account to use the OS. This is seriously getting me to consider moving to linux for my next pc build.
I think the tech industry got used to people not giving a fuck as they shoveled more and more anti-features with weak "feature" reasoning to back it up (like convenience of having all your files in one place to justify continual data transfer between the device and their servers, processing audio remotely to justify sending an audio feed, "you can access your history" to justify saving the history, etc) that they are surprised that there's pushback as it enters this new level.
