      I work in IT and I try to remove all clues that copilot exists when I set up new computers because I don’t trust users to not fuck up their devices.

        I start off with Win10Privacy (which also cleans 11) and then follow up with Win11Debloat. The two work pretty well.

          I disable that shit the next time I’m in the computer. We also manage the updates so users can’t run them on their own.

        A joke in the aviation industry is that planes will someday become so automated there will just be one pilot and a dog in the cockpit. The dog will trained to bite the pilot if they try to touch the controls.

        So I maybe windows users will need a virtual dog to bite copilot if it tries to do anything.
