Anyway, Outlook is working fine for me here in NZ. This news seems to be a day old: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=MO941162
(And of course you can't read it if you're not logged in.)
(PS: Poe’s law).
Arguably EuroNews is a strange source for news like this, but companies like Microsoft and Amazon are terrible about communicating outages directly.
The link to continue without agreeing is right at the top with the warning, and not buried somewhere in settings (and especially not sending you to each of the 800 to opt out individually like so many firms helpfully offer).
Most sites linked from HN you don't see that number even though it often numbers in the thousands; and if you do get told, they don't let you use a single click to continue without agreeing.
I was pleasantly surprised how transparent this was, and that I could just disagree and continue, instead of the usual GDPR-dodging dark patterns.
SharePoint Online search is broken too.
How could you tell ?
Then about 5 years ago something similar happened at another company when I was against 365. Their argument was “I know it sucks, but that’s microsoft’s preferred way”
There are a lot of people with decision making power that base their decisions solely on marketing material.
haha, nothing ever changes
