I don't think that's quite accurate.
The "understand it well enough to explain it to a professor" clause is carrying a lot of weight here - if that part is fulfilled, then yeah, you're actually learning something.
Unless of course, all of the professors are awful at their jobs too. Most of mine were pretty good at asking very pointed questions to figure out what you actually know, and could easily unmask a bullshit artist with a short conversation.
...attracting criticism from lawmakers, who warn it could...
Oh my, if only there were someone with the resources and authority to do something about it.
Are we talking t-bone or ribeye?
I'm more concerned with the transformations from customers to product.
"Hey, buy our expensive shit but also give us all your data so we can also sell it to other companies."
A lot of unpopular "features" and behaviors used to have DISM, policy, or registry workarounds. And MS seems to love to kill those workarounds during later updates.
If MS isn't letting people uninstall it, there's a reason for it, and I'd be willing to bet that users will one day find that it has been magically re-enabled by an update.
They don't care as long as they can get in, make a few bucks, and get out. Long-term stability isn't the priority anymore, just quick profits.

Is this an exotic way of saying that you're a chef?
What the fuck was your prompt for this?
Oh no... It's a concert for skinheads

Sometimes there are very good reasons for a family member being "long lost."
What a nice cherry on top of the hypocrisy pie. The party of "personal responsibility" and "small government" is perfectly happy when government is used to regulate sexuality and help out the irresponsible parents that don't want to spend time monitoring their children's Internet usage. Now young teens are going to learn how to use VPNs or just find the shadier sites that don't give a shit about U.S. state laws.
Both of which would be adequately addressed by parents learning how to use the tools that are probably already built into their router.
