pxeboot on Jan 11, 2024 | parent | context | favorite | on: Outlook is Microsoft's new data collection service

Outlook (the app) is not the same as outlook.com (the email service) or Exchange Online (what most companies use). Data from one product/service could be used in different ways than others.

Of course. Microsoft has different email products and services that they skim customer data from.

Fortunately, Microsoft has infrastructure so robust they can share a customer's data with 733 3rd parties.

I think we can safely send one more copy to the customer (who's data it is) without overtaxing anything.
