What a wonderfully mature and unbiased article to be finding on a technology community.
Being bothered by a company forcibly installing more ads for a trash anti feature to your computer isn't "bias".
Adding a small flavor of satire to commentary on ridiculous abuse of market dominance to establish a foothold in a new space isn't immature, either.
What ads? It's the actual feature, being provided as a free update.
Turn it off if you don't want it.
Have you actually used Windows?
I think there were some ads in the little side widget screen that took 2 seconds to disable so it's now kind of usable. Anything else?
