In view of the latest news coming out of Microsoft...

Yeah, KDE's Plasma doesn't do that either. Your stuff is safe.

My kids are playing ' geography activity, and it occurred to me, a language nerd, that it would be awesome if we could collect the countries' names pronounced by someone local, and use those sounds for a similar activity. Of course, it's so out of this world, that I'm not gonna open an issue in their issue tracker. At best, I could start collecting them, and only open the issue when I have them all, right?

If you don't use Bing with Edge, Microsoft will tell you your computer needs repairing.

They are not wrong.

To mend your machine:

  1. Ditch Windows
  2. Install Plasma
  3. Your computer is ready.

Apple had to learn the hard way: Under the DMA (thanks @EUCommission !) they were forced to give users a choice regarding the default search engine and browser on their systems.

What are we going to do about Microsoft misleading users?
