    You’re telling me, that Windows now shows ads in the start menu?

    Sorry, it’s probably a stupid question, but i haven’t used windows since XP.

      Most are in your system notifications but you’ll have “suggested apps” in the start menu for easy one-click installs

      When you try to log out you’ll see ads for OneDrive and Office 365 apparently

      There’s this

        Wow - that’s really something.

        It could almost be compared to Google’s feed, included in the pixel launcher…

        For some time now, every 5th or 6th card is an ad … And over time they slowly look just like the normal news cards.

        Yeah, nowadays we’re getting ads forced upon us - one way or the other ads have to be seen, preferably clicked on, by us.

        That’s not really ads though.
