Microsofts new Terms and Service agreement is rather questionable. In short; It does not clarify if Microsoft will use your data to train itโs AI.
So Mozilla is calling for arms to sign their petition for Microsoft to give a proper answer! You can sign it here -> https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/campaigns/microsoft-ai/
Mozillas Context;
Ask Microsoft: Are you using our personal data to train AI? We had four lawyers, three privacy experts, and two campaigners look at Microsoftโs new Service Agreement, and none of our experts could tell if Microsoft plans on using your personal data โ including audio, video, chat, and attachments from 130 products, including Office, Skype, Teams, and Xbox โ to train its AI models.
If nine experts in privacy canโt understand what Microsoft does with your data, what chance does the average person have? Thatโs why weโre asking Microsoft to say if theyโre going to use our personal data to train its AI.
For questions you may have the !linux@lemmy.ml community is very welcoming. In theory there are also !linux4noobs@programming.dev and !linux4noobs@lemmy.world which should be more targeted at new users but they seem to be quite inactive lately (wonโt hurt anyone here to go take a look there and try to keep them alive :-)).
