There has been a big backlash from health care providers about Microsoft's data collection using Windows 11. Australian hospitals have just realised they are at risk of being sued for breaking patient confidentiality as Microsoft is harvesting all their patient records.
So this week they have decided to move their computers from Windows to Linux, and about 100,000 Australian hospital PC's are just about to move off Microsoft, with more to follow. (These are approximate figures that I haven't checked)
Meanwhile in Korea companies like Samsung have apparently finally realised that Microsoft is potentially doing industrial espionage on them (what on earth did they think Microsoft were doing all along?) so Korea is now switching hundreds of thousands of computers to Linux.
Microsoft's share price has recently had around a 10% drop which has wiped billions off their valuation.
