  My voice agent pages a human when something on a call can't wait. It emails whoever's on duty with an acknowledge link. Click it, the alert is marked handled, the ladder stops climbing. Every single one was getting acknowledged within seconds. Before a person had opened the message. Enterprise mail security fetches every URL in an inbound message at delivery. SafeLinks, Proofpoint, Mimecast, Gmail prefetch. This is not new, the email marketing world has been fighting it since at least 2019 when Office 365 started unsubscribing people who never clicked anything, and the fix is the rule HTTP has had for twenty five years: a GET doesn't get to change things. Which I know. Everybody knows. My route had a comment on it saying "GET, because it is the target of a link in an email," which is true, and is not a reason to make it act. GET now renders a confirm button and changes nothing. POST records. There's a test that fetches the URL and asserts the alarm is still armed.

  The new revelation regarding windows GDID probably has pissed off various “3 letter” agencies around the world. It’s been a staple of easily tracking you and I. Too bad. Glad it’s been outed. I’ve switched out the various laptops I use for online activities such as this one for a certain Linux distribution as well as modified their hardware a bit. Yes, you can be tracked by what’s in your computer. Change it around a bit if possible. Don’t use the same box you pay bills and work remotely on to get on social media. -Proton VPN- DON’T EVER use a Microsoft account. Sign into your windows computer with an old school local account. This is a must. You can search for how to do it. Office 365 can be permanently activated on your computer as a local installation. Do it. (Massgrave) Better yet, use Libre Office and enjoy not being tracked by Office 365. I Google scans your Gmail. Be aware of it. There’s better email providers (Proton). Nobody is perfect but some are orders of magnitude less “nosey.” Download DoNotSpy11. You want to turn OFF virtually everything. You’ll be amazed at what you can shut down. Turn OFF your location / eye tracking / motion detection on your laptop if you don’t do anything else. There is at least one windows GDID changer powershell script I tested. It worked. If you sign into a MS account, you’ll get the same GDID right back so don’t use that MS account going forward. Not going into phone safety or Flock cameras or new vehicles in this post. I’ll just say this: Any time your phone/iPad etc is not inside of an rf-proof bag/case, it’s going to talk to something somewhere, even if it is “off.” You can buy those bags on Amazon cheap. Get one. If you have a newer car (on-star) it tells servers where the car is constantly. Review: Learn Linux. It’s open source, not full of spyware. Get a ham radio license. Keep your 10 year old Toyota forever. Pay with cash sometimes just to switch it up a bit and make the cashier learn to count 😎. Be aware of what devices you use that tattle on your activities and govern yourself accordingly. A little misdirection or just being quieter on social media never hurts, either. Okay end of my coffee-laden ramblings. Hopefully this helped some of you. 🇺🇸

  @Microsoft365 To use Scout, you need: 1. to be part of the Frontier Preview Program 2. need Office 365 Copilot Access 3. need local admin privileges on the device 4. your IT Admin needs to configure Frontier. 5. your IT Admin needs to configure InTune policy for Scout 6. your local IT Admin needs to agree to (attest to) and opt-in their organisation to third party inference paths. Note: "When data is sent to GitHub Copilot, M365 data residency, retention, eDiscovery, legal hold, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Sensitivity and Confidentiality Labels, audit, SLAs, and the Customer Copyright Commitment do not apply." Here is why this matters: If 'AI' extracts a list of sensitive intellectual property or customer data from a labeled document and pastes it into a new response, that new response has no label. A user could easily copy and paste that text into an external email or a public generative AI tool without triggering any data loss prevention alerts. Regulatory frameworks require strict auditing of where sensitive data travels. Because the new content does not inherit the source classification, your automated compliance systems lose track of that data. The responsibility shifts entirely to the end user to manually classify every single output generated by the AI session, which frequently leads to human error.

  @marcelhaasIO @MaxBrodeurUrbas @satyanadella All my accounts use the same email and sometimes different passwords. The average user does not know he needs to save the credentials as “azure login”, “office 365 login”, “exchange admin login”. Dude it’s a mess.

  @Anas_Sloth @Yetee_ @WildSentences no, you are with your utter idiocy. what does "365" have to do with literally anything in this conversation? do i need 365 attacking computers? Do i need to use office 365 like a micro simp? If you can't even clearly make a statement, don't bother trying to talk to people. What document on 365? What ******** does that gotta do with anything? Your answer is clearly dumb and has no sustenance behind it. Just make a little sense will ya. like you started off telling me it isn't a network problem, it is a backup problem. while responding to my message talking about data replication(A ******* backup). Thanks for pointing out the obvious! If anyone is a troll here it is you. I say it is a backup issue, and then you tell me "No, it is a backup issue not a network issue." Like a backup doesn't live on a network, requiring networking knowledge. All while telling me about bandwidth( A ******* networking Issue!!!!!)

  Let's put some "customer" information in here, so you have a better perspective. First, most of us who live in cyber security world avoid Edge like the plague. It is malware gangrene. You have designed it so that it digs in to every piece of our system, gathering our information, and we can't configure it to stay out. Security concerns. Let's add another problem, which is creating problems in daily operations: Office 365 has been designed in a way that prevents us from normal functions that we valued highly in Office Professional 2016, which was your cleanest, most professional WORKING version. Fast, efficient, and without the intrusions of 'phone' children processing. The new O365 is the least professional of all the versions you have 'improved.' I don't care about you tracking my daily work, giving me a 'viva report.' In fact, I want that deleted. There are so many bugs in O365, such as synching issues, wherein entire strings of emails disappear from the in box if I use a different device to respond to a Customer. There is a LONG list of 'improvements' you force in during updates that are actually damaging to work flow. Further, trying to force us into the NEW outlook is enraging. We keep using the "classic" to survive all your bugs and bad screen layouts, and the lack of controls your new version has imposed, and it keeps flipping back. SOOOOO many things we all hate about O365 and you do nothing to fix them. YOU have decided how we should do business. These childish relabeling and moving episodes of commands does not improve your product. Example: There was a function that allowed me to open an email, search 'all related emails' and find an older piece of the conversation. That's gone. Why? Many of the admin functions in settings are simply gone. Same with the new Windows. When I go research in various communities, MANY humans have the same complaints. Everyone hates the new versions of both products. SOME OF US are required to work offline, we do not work in your clouds. We have to have everything on the computer unit to travel without cloud access. You have made that a major problem. Do yourself a favor. If you want us to actually LIKE you, instead of hate you all day, take a survey here. Ask everyone what they miss about the old product, just start with 2016 Office Professional, and ask what they hate about O365. Ask about security problems, ask about the sentiment regarding Edge being forced on us, without the ability to uninstall it. Learn this: We are paying your salary. Learn this: We are all unhappy with the current product. Millions of us are heavy-use professionals that need the cleaner version. The current online version is even worse than that desktop app. Learn this: 2016, literally, was the last clean version you produced/coded. Once you went all SAS and cloud sales focused, you trashed a great product. Maybe have a team researching all the public comments and problems.

  I cannot believe that a Company as big as @MSFT365Status @Microsoft @Office365 has had an Exchange outage since 9:11AM PST (at least) - resulting in a continued, now 5 hour, outage. So many tenants are unable to send or receive emails, and how there isn't world-class redundant infrastructure in-place for their Exchange server is beyond me.

  Either this guy is deliberately being a hypocrite or he's woefully uninformed. Hard to believe people like this exist with zero knowledge about how the real world works. For my Canadian people EVerything in Canada runs on American tech Your iPhone/iPad/Mac -> American Your Android/PC -> American Majority of the things you interact with -> American Google, X, Claude, Codex/OpenAI, Instagram, Facebook, SnapChat, Office 365 (word, excel etc) Majority of Government infrastructure runs on Azure, AWS, GCP and leverages IBM, Deloitte and other big 4 for consulting. Fix that **** first - i.e. find alternatives (good luck btw) then the virtue signaling would make sense. Until then you people complaining sound like a bunch of ill informed cucks.

  @EvanLuthra What is going on with these tech companies just taking away more of our rights and charging us more to do so?????? Microsoft "updated" my Office 365 Home addition with the "New" version. Not knowing this at the time, I open up Outlook as usual and thre was the "New" version. Less functionality and unusable to me. I located the switch to go back to Classic toggle button, slid it over, and Bam, a pop-up survey appears asking me why I dont like the new version. So now I can't do anything, twice as much. I scroll down and hit the skip button, but it is grayed out. Next to it is the submit button greyed out. Now totally pissed off I start typing expletives into the survey form. Guess what you have to complete the form to skip it. I and now not just pissed off, exponentially, but also feeling like the smartest person on the freaking planet. I don't know when it happened but tech, just basic stuff, has totally gone into the toilet. How is AI supposed to run on top of this garbage?

  @OneNote In the OneNote app for Office 365 under Windows 10, somebody broke the 'copy link to paragraph' functionality. Intead of pasting a hsort clean link, it pastes the *entire URL'. This is broken, it works in the Windows 10 app btw. (But my notebook does nto work in the Windows 10 app. And the error happens in 'smaller' and 'neater' notebooks as well in the 365 app for Win10.)

  Microsoft's Empire Continues to Crumble Microsoft has 450 million Office 365 users. Their flagship AI product, Copilot, has converted just 3.3% of them into paying customers. The stock is down 12 to 15 percent year-to-date, and their CFO recently circulated an internal memo calling for a “tighter” organization moving at an “increased pace.” That is corporate code for one thing: more people may be about to lose their jobs. The question I keep coming back to is this: what happens when the company that built the modern office, the one that owns your email, spreadsheets, calendar, documents, and most of your work life, starts losing its grip on the one product it bet everything on? And what does it mean when Anthropic walks directly into Microsoft’s living room, right inside Word, Excel, and Outlook, and starts doing the job better than Microsoft itself? Is the world’s most powerful tech titan actually running on fumes? What if the $13 billion bet that was supposed to secure Microsoft’s future is becoming the weight that drags it down? Why are internal memos suddenly demanding a faster, tighter organization while their flagship software struggles under the weight of its own updates? OpenAI is projecting staggering losses, Microsoft’s stock just took a major hit, and the “exclusive” moat they thought they had is starting to disappear. So the real question is: is Microsoft still an innovator, or has it become a market-paralyzing giant that has lost its way? Today, we’re looking past the marketing and into the data to see why the pillars are starting to crack.

  @Microsoft - You make it IMPOSSIBLE to login and cancel an Office 365 business subscription to Visio. I have been hung up on no fewer than three times by your AI assistant midway through my support call. I cannot log in because, while my business Office365 account exists in my Authenticator app, no code or request to approve ever appears. Endless loop of no help. Calling support and being forced to have a converation with the AI assistant is futile. It just hangs up for no reason before the issue is addressed. No ticket number, nothing. I have directed American Express to block future charges for the subscription. I will contact my state attorney general's office if this is not resolved.

  Dan Greller (@dgreller) reported 60 minutes ago

  @bretgreenstein @KarolCodes Agreed. Historically, things moved at a slow enough pace that there was ample time to reasonably estimate the cost of an associate's tech stack. The value obtained from that stack was self-evident, exceeding its cost. For example, no rational firm was doing an ROI on whether a new associate should have a PC or an Office 365 license. It was table stakes. In this new AI world, both the costs and the potential value are radically changing on a routine basis. It makes it that much harder to have sound and stable financial governance models.
