The app automatically installs Bing Visual Search and includes code to decrypt cookies saved in other browsers, Rivera said, and it also brings a “free” geolocation web API to the system.

The developer discovered “many” nasty tricks Microsoft integrated in Bing Wallpapers, which include trying to change the browser’s settings and set Edge as the default system browser. If the default browser isn’t Edge, the app will open the default browser after some time asking to enable the previously installed Microsoft Bing Search for Chrome extension.

    Users of Lemmy resort to downvoting when they can’t defend their arguments.

    You got absolutely obliterated because you posted two links to ‘articles,’ one of which is just some guys blog, and then refused to defend anything the articles said.

    Also you don’t ‘defend’ a counter argument. You started the argument, offered a blog as ‘proof’ of an issue, when pressed on what the blog said you backed down and refused to defend it, and you just accuse everyone around of you of not having independent thought.

    It is a fact that humans are more eager to show their disapproval than approval for something, like in restaurant reviews, where the only people who bother to leave a review are those with bad experiences.

    YOU LITERALLY DID THIS. A guy said ‘The Godot Engine is getting better every day.’ in a post about Microsoft screwing up an app and you, yes, you started complaining about the team behind the engine! You’re like the living embodiment of irony, hahahahahaha
