Perhaps we may finally head back to the 80s when the computer industry last had competition. The fact Commodore has come back was a sign
It should have been very simple. Don't install that crap. Keep it safe and secure by design, but no. Then after installing, at any time, you should be able to select the "AI" versions of programs and deselect if you don't want it anymore. Want AI in your Notepad [Check On->Install Notepad.AI]. Want AI in your calculator [Check Off]. Want AI in your File Explorer [Check On-->Explorer.AI]. Want AI in your Email [Check Off]. Want advertisements and "recommendations" [Check on --> Annoyances.AI]. Want to reset every setting after an "update" [Check Off]. Want to upload all your personal folders to the MS servers [Check On--> Cloud.AI, Surveillance.AI, AllYourShitBelongsToUsNow.AI]. Should not be hard.... but it is. What a waste.
