    Of course, how else will they pay for storage of your data? This part already started with OneDrive. Now you’ll buy a new laptop for $100, the thinnest laptop you’ve ever seen, it will just come with a 128GB m.1 drive soldered to the board, and you’ll run (and save) everything from Microsoft’s servers.

      That’s exactly the argument they and their bootlickers will use too. “we need it to run infrastructure!!!” they wouldnt have to run infrastructure if they didnt gut features from their products. Like the whole Toyota remote start subscription crap. “They need the subscription to run the servers so you can start your car from anywhere” but you can no longer use classic radio remote start which doesn’t require servers
