If the antitrust laws don’t do anything to Safari on iOS, they won’t do anything to Edge on Windows.

Seems like MS is trying to run afoul of anti-trust laws, again.

iOS allows you to change the default browser, a key aspect that this change to Teams circumvents.

That’s, like, their whole business model

They were forced by the EU to add a browser choice option in Windows XP so users can easily get rid of IE. A few years later and they try the same shit all over again.

Maybe, but it’s not like everyone doesn’t just install the browser from the Goliath of the industry. Which at this point seems redundant, since they may as well be the same browser.

They’ve already done this in Outlook. It opens the web page in Edge and the email in a side panel. I don’t really like it but I’ve not mustered up the energy to find out how to fix it. It did ask me if I wanted to turn the feature off the other day but I’d already shut that pop up down before I realised what it was.

They can read the room, the US government is pathetic.

Late stage capitalism: The corporations are the government.
Final stage capitalism: an absolute fusion of corporation and state, where the fascist party commands the nations capital/industry/corporations as though they are business units of the state; existing solely to benefit whatever megalomaniac happens to lead them at that point in time.
