@VE3RWJ @prism It's a dark pattern within a dark pattern... a dark pattern inception. And just like cloud storage was forced on us, the same is happening all over with AI.

@prism This is an absolute nightmare. The last time I set up a Windows 11, I also noticed that everything in the home drive was being saved to OneDrive, and I remember being baffled that the default was cloud storage. But it was even more frustrating that it wasn't straightforward to disable. And now, through your story, we see the impact of this awful design. Thank you for sharing, and hopefully it prompts everyone that uses Windows 11 to take a closer look at how theirs is set up.

@catsalad I was five minutes younger before I realized it was a loop. I just really wanted the little guy to make it.
