I've been in the Xbox and W10M previews for a long time now. I've literally played on Xbox LIVE for more than half my life now. Doing that to my PC might be the one and only thing MS could EVER do to chase me off. I am still mad Cortana is non-optional via the search button on my Lumia 950. Cortana is the spybot I tried to avoid when I stopped using any Google products, including switching from Android to WP. No more recommending MS products to people at all. I saw no mention of that on this site, any confirmation? If that is what MS is about, inserting non-optional data mining software into every W10 PC and phone, I'm out. So I just read that Cortana is required for all search in the Anniversary Update. Or change the name from 'Windows Central' to 'Windows Central. As much as I like getting fresh info from Windows Central, I'm starting to look around for another portal that's more respectful to readers from around the globe. Seriously, this attitude is getting tiresome. There's nothing for you to do here, we won't acknowledge that there are market differences'. 'We don't care, either you're in our fancy club, or you're an inferior reader.

For some articles you do, but when you don't care, such as here, your article reads as a big 'screw you' to me, your reader. Maybe you need to refresh you geographical knowledge a bit? Here, take a look at this map, and try to find as many grayed out countries as you can:Īnd you didn't even bother to put a small disclaimer in the article. Seriously guys, do you really think that Cortana is available globally? It seems so, as you haven't even spared a sentence to inform that it's available only in selected countries.
