I HATE the way Microsoft is forcing One Drive and Microsoft accounts on everybody. This forced integration creates new problems and security risks.

That's happening in the government too. Air Force users are now being forced to use OneDrive and MicroThief accounts, thereby storing all of our data in the Cloud. I absolutely refuse to do that, storing all of my data locally are on a networked drive local to the base.

I keep warning people none of what MicroThief is offering is safe but they don't listen.

Re: "I HATE the way Microsoft is forcing One Drive and Microsoft accounts on everybody."

I disagree.

One Drive is completely optional - use it, or ignore it.

My Microsoft account is great.

I can log in on any device in the world, and my desk top, my Favorites, my Hotmail, my Apps, and my documents appear and work exactly the same everywhere.

Maybe advanced computer users have a legitimate reason to hate Microsoft.

I'm a completely average user, and Windows and the Microsoft browser have worked out fine for me for the last 22 years.
