copilot was installed on my computer a few weeks ago.

I turn on my laptop and login... and there is was, waving at me at the bottom of the screen... "Here I am, try me!" type of thing.

[I know, it was not "waving at me" but it was made obvious by popups]

Surprisingly, I was not angry or even thought to myself "I did not install this!"

I think that says alot about my views on Windows.. or Microsoft in general. I am actually a GNU/Linux user but I do have 1 laptop purely for one company I work for. I am slowly moving it away from Windows (Windows Servers, Windows Programs, etc) to run on Linux.

As far as I am concerned, any job I get that are using Windows... they need to provide me a laptop.

Honestly just fed up it. I just accept that I really do not "own" my copy of Windows.
