    And consider Linux. Microsoft has put ads into Windows, and could do the same thing they’re doing on Xbox if they think they could get away with it. Yeah, some games don’t work on Linux (most do though!), but Linux also doesn’t track or advertise to you.

      “Could do”? I haven’t used Windows in a decade at least, but doesn’t it have ads in the start menu now?

        I think so? I know they used to pre-install Candy Crush or whatever, but I’m not sure what Windows 11 does these days.

        Regardless, that’s not going to happen on Linux, but it totally could (does already?) on Windows.
