Image description: Elon Musk & X @elonmusk • 42m Just bought a new PC laptop and it won’t let me use it unless I create a Microsoft account, which also means giving their Al access to my computer! This is messed up. There used to be an option to skip signing into or creating a Microsoft account. Are you seeing this too? This is not cool of Microsoft.

Right, but my mom and dad would not even think that there is a way around it. They wouldn’t even know to look.
Sure, but are they ones who care about not having a Microsoft account?
They might even think it is convenient.
If someone is privacy aware enough, they’ll find the solution themselves.
Bingo.
