This dude is waging an advanced PsyOps warfare with America and they didn't even realize it. The damage to US reputation will be felt for generations to come. US will never have moral mouth again after this; no matter who's in power.

Well, that explains a lot. They are Web Apps! Why do we have to tie resources into Apps consumers are never gonna use without Corp account?

Still don't get why #Microsoft is forcing these AI Apps (Calendar, Files and People) on consumers. They are corporate Apps; you can't use them without a Corp account. Yet, you can't uninstall them, you can't disable them from AutoStart, MS just re-enable them with next reboot. This is crazy MS!
