Does your company/school provide employee/student Microsoft 365 licences? Ask your Windows-using colleague to check that “Optional Connected Experiences” are enabled and tell the IT team that they are likely allowing genAI training on internal documents (Microsoft seems to have reserved the right to do that and never denied the allegations). Yes, they can disable this organization-wide and will likely contact Microsoft over this, and if enough of us do this they’ll know they crossed a line.
If your company’s IT team does not respond, you’ll have another argument getting your peers over to LibreOffice.
We’re working hard to get rid of Microsoft as last we checked, we can’t disable copiloi using our data used on SharePoint without also removing all required user functionality like searching documents from SharePoint. We searched everywhere and literally couldn’t find a way to remove that.
I know that government is storing citizens data there…
WTF, why have companies ever decided to use Microsoft ?
I believe the government gets a different version of Windows.
My work has blocked copilot and all the AI tools. The search function in Sharepoint works for me though.
Companies cannot afford to dump Windows. They need to hire people with Linux knowledge or train existing employees and most importantly rewrite programs still using MS DOS.

Dump Microsoft, now.
