Image description: Elon Musk & X @elonmusk โ€ข 42m 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 Al 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? This is not cool of Microsoft.

@[email protected] Literally only got as far as skip mi in a Google search bar before the first recommendation was skip microsoft account windows 11 which has a bunch of functional guides to doing exactly what it says on the tin. Good grief. This guy has more money than is ethical or reasonable largely from Internet businesses and he can't figure out how to solve his own problems with a quick Internet search. What a fucking tool.
