I was referring to Microsoft selling ad space on your computer. Not them using it themselves. In this regard, it's different from what Canonical did.

I'm talking about choices that disrupt user productivity on their computers. Not choices that might annoy users who read each and every line in a 40 lines CLI output.

I don't see a difference, does Canonical themselves write the code for the software they do ads for?

Some people consider being annoyed every couple of 40 lines CLI output disruptive for their work.
