Microsoft Account AI Access Complaint

Just bought a new PC laptop and it won’t let me use it unless I create a Microsoft account, which also means giving their AI access to my computer! This is messed up. There used to be an option to skip signing into or creating a Microsoft account. Are you seeing this too?

A screenshot of Elon Musk’s post complaining that a new Windows laptop requires a Microsoft account, potentially giving Microsoft AI access to the computer. The joke is a sarcastic privacy and anti-Microsoft reaction to forced account creation and AI integration, useful when criticizing intrusive software policies.
