Microsoft tells Windows Latest its Bing search app for Chrome, Firefox, and Brave is optional, and requires user consent to change defaults.

    I searched for, downloaded, and installed the Poison My Well app, and the thing forced itself into my well!

    Both Google on Android and Microsoft on windows - They make changes and lock apps out of defaults. Install random programmes, bring up pop ups etc.

    These types of issues are why i’m now dailying Mint and GrapheneOS.

    Fortunately, Windows is also optional.
