Ads coming to the Windows 11 Start Menu by default

Microsoft continues to take a big fat shit all over Windows, this time placing ads within the Windows 11 Start Menu. You'd think this precious, flagship space on your computer would be sacrosanct, but no, some fuckwit at Microsoft can't help themselves and decided "this would be an awesome place to sell ads for other apps!", presumably while snorting a line of coke off a pig's arse during a Wednesday morning blue sky session in Redmond. The ads can be disabled (for now) and it won't apply to commercial devices (aka devices managed by organisations) but the absolute disdain Microsoft has for its users never ceases to surprise me. Nobody wants this, nobody asked for this, it doesn't make the product better in any way whatsoever. Have some fucking respect for you and your customers!!
