Microsoft is seeking feedback on the changes, so it’s possible the company could decide to ditch these ads […]

are they really looking to see if people want to see more ads? i can’t imagine this is anything more than a meaningless corporate “we value your feedback” message. they already know what people think about ads in their operating system, they’ve tried it many times

It's likely they're looking for feedback from their shareholders, and their advertising partners rather than the users themselves. They know they've got a good portion of the market cornered and if it looks profitable to them; why wouldn't they do it?
