Oh, I mean, the "why" is pretty simple. They're going to enable onedrive upload by default, wait until the sync finishes, then change the EULA to allow them to scrape everyone's onedrive for machine learning data that they can then sell.

>>Welcome to hell.




Nah? Thats the next MBAs bag.

This MBAs job is to get as many copilot dailyvusers as possible and to do that they need your files in their data orbit.

Remember when dropbox had to tell everone their openai integration wad opt in.

Youre a few MBAs ahead, todays MBA just needs daily copilot users and thats onlyvfeasible with the cloud.


> change the EULA

Have you read the Windows privacy policy any time in the last decade?

They don't need to change anything.


I can't tell you the last time I read a EULA. Probably back when software still came in a box and they put the EULA in said box, and I was stuck on the toilet without any other reading materials.


I assume that every EULA basically says, “we can do whatever we want and there’s nothing you can do about it. Also, fuck you. Also, you’re ugly.”


If you were already on the toilet with the EULA you had the opportunity to put it to better use than reading it.
