  @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.

  @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.

  @NXT4EU We used to have office computers, running on an office server park. No outside computers had access. Micro$oft mandates Office 365 and OneDrive. The server may be in Europe, but where is the backup server. And more important: Who has admin rights over your files?

  @codewith55 Your first step for a new Windows computer is not what to install, but what to uninstall. 1) OneDrive 2) MS-Account (use local login) 3) Copilot 4) Office365 5) Manufacturer & MS Bloatware. Then start your installs. 1) A real browser (Brave, Firefox) 2) LibreOffice 3) VLC

  like for example: if you defend an org you will likely have: A firewall/VPN server A router/switch A cloud hosted web server Microsoft office 365 Maybe an Remote Desktop Services (or VDI) Service Your daily world will not be full of zero days exploding inside ur VPN server (unless you have a fortinet :P /s) these are rare events. You will have: Phishing/AITM attacks Scams/BEC Identity Dictionary/Brute Force you will also have malware etc. on box IPS/IDS/EDR alerts for behavioural type stuff (most of these are false positives) so software vulnerabilities on the edge in terms of volume will likely not be ur daily grind! identity will.

  @peach2k2 @B1rtek1 Same. You have to go to office 365 logout and then sign in again. This is inhumane UX!

  @Office365 I am very much frustrated and really very much disappointed with my account of Microsoft 365 account. I am got stuck in loop of authentication MFA For asking help also login required. And how could any one login if authentication is not working.

  @OrevaZSN Why would anyone be trying to edit a PDF in Word? Edit it in Acrobat, where it belongs. And Word isn't a DTP app. Some of us know how to use it very well and don't have these issues. Not saying Office 365 isn't a hell hole, but at least use the right app for the job at hand

  Did you know that personal devices can become gateways for corporate data breaches? A recent case revealed a malware attack that accessed Office 365 through a compromised BYOD. The fix? Continuous monitoring and behavior analysis! How secure is your work device? #CyberSecurity

  @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.

  @RihardJarc Half of its market value is office 365. So you can cut that segment in half, thus reducing its market cap by 25%. I think that segment's going to go down even more

  "GitHub's scale is unprecedented." No, it really isn't. GitHub: 150M total users. Office 365: 345M total users. Xbox: 500M monthly active users. Bing: 100M+ daily active users. The company that runs Office, Xbox and Bing can run GitHub. If reliability is slipping, that's a priorities problem, not a scale problem.

  @FurkanGozukara I stopped giving money to companies I can't call. In July 2024, Microsoft expected me to go a month without email. I don't own a cell phone, email is my communication with the world. I cancelled Office 365, moved my mx records for my domain and went down to $1.50 a month.

  Dear @Flipkart, it's been over 4 months and my issue is still unresolved. You sold me "Microsoft Office 365 Professional Plus – Lifetime Validity", but the seller activated it using an organization account that is now unusable. Instead of resolving the issue, your team keeps asking for an impossible letter from Microsoft. I need a replacement or refund. Order ID: OD328524328820318100 #Flipkart #ConsumerRights

  Office 365 has been priced at $6 per inbox for over a decade and during that time it has never turned a profit. I'm almost sure that means it's impossible. Normally you would shut down an unprofitable line of business but the military insists it is necessary for war effort.

  So aparrently, the „Smart“ App Control from #Microsoft in the #Windows „Security“-Settings blocks you from installing #office365 … and you have to PERMANENTLY shut off that „Security Feature“ to fix this issue … fml why did i go into IT-Support 🙈😭

  @nonlinear_james @atalocke I’m using it to manage my work office 365 email right now without any issue. Not IMAP, either. It has native exchange capabilities. Also, WTF is wrong with IMAP? Evolution’s biggest advantage is it doesn’t tether me to a proprietary OS. No copilot BS on my computer!

  @satyanadella Wow, you embraced AI as a way to defend your lucrative Office365 suite. You launched co-pilot and failed. Now that you are loosing the AI race and you Office365 franchise you attack the AI you promoted, and launching more solutions looking for a problem.

  @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.

  @korewadiego My biggest problems are that the UI is awful compared to Office 365, and it seems incapable of opening an existing docx without completely nuking the formatting.

  @gabefollower Those lawsuits from those companies are straight up retarded. They claim Valve is monopoly and then in next sentence they say that 30% cut is too much. What they think will happen if Valve lowers it to like 15%. Consumers will choose Steam less? Hell no, they will like Steam even more then. As a result those companies will cry wolf even more that Steam is monopoly. Competition offers trash service, tries to bait with discounts and loses and them cries like babies. C’mon now. Epic owner cries every day about Valve and Steam and his “Game Launcher” is still mega slow and looks more like launcher for Office 365 than game launcher.

  @PaperBozz You’ll always have enterprise customers where as it makes more sense to rent (think Office 365) vs hire a team (and lofty capex budget) to mange compute on prem. Makes alot of sense to rent compute in other words, solves a problem plenty viable buisnenes model/service. Everything digital future.

  @ToddHagopian @Dream4Liberty @ChaseForLiberty They did not ask to spend $40k to tell them the system they built was broken instead of the $10k to fix it, lol. They did not ask Angela to hire Buchkovich so that there was no oversight, kill Burns' contract, then spend more than $100k killing the CiviCRM that money had just been spent on for Zoho, which is worse in every conceivable way. The destruction of everything that Moellman and Burns built happened at the end of 2023. Those IT costs listed are from the work to tear down Civi and Zoho, not the total IT costs. ONLY the intentionally doubled (because Angela, who never used Civi, decided it had to die) costs or TRIPLED costs (like with LPMail, Gmail, and Office365). I've been here 25 years, Todd. I watched what happened with the IS committee. You can be defensive about this, but you weren't the one being pointed at as a problem by Amanda or by me. You're taking facts personally, which isn't like you. Believe what you want.

  @therahul4402 What's happening with Linux Mint? Windows 11 happened. I did not have serious issues with Windows 10. Log into your MS account..harder and harder local options. All your personal and IP and Work Product files have to be on Onedrive. Copilot. Sales push for Office 365, when anyone with a brain has been using OS for decades. Edge harassment. Poison Updates . Slinking to subscriptions. Eternal cash flow. GFYS with a road flare.
