A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

My other biggest gripe: what happens to business computer users at the office? What about their admins? How much extra work is this going to create???
Enterprise and SMB always have practical workarounds that consumers do not need to deal with.
The only way to create a local user account on windows 11 now without fuckery is pretending you are going to domain join. No other method exists without under the hood tweaks. A similar workaround would work.
But none of this actually protects kids. The goal is to have total surveillance over as many users as possible in their home life. Enterprise is already handled by m365 and google workspace after all.
Ohhh trust me I know it's all about surveillance. I'm just meaning they're going to negatively impact everyone everywhere without a second thought because they'll get what they want in the end. Either more money or more reelections
