I find that beyond the :
- security risks
- privacy concerns​
- inability to troubleshoot connection issues
- being exposed to MS outages
- inability to optimize routing for global customers
there is also the glaring fact that MS is a competitor in this space.
What stops them 12 months from now from simply saying: Your provider
doesn't support Modern Auth ( there is still no agreed-upon standard
in fact ) - switch to MS365 for a better experience ?
The whole thing seems very anti-competitive to me.
This appears to be the plan.
and it is indeed anti-competitive. If anyone in Canada is willing to
work with me to put together the technical side, I am happy to write,
and even represent them pro-bono, to the Competition Commissioner as a
lawyer.
And to answer what you reported on another thread, Michael, (the Paypal
phishing), they are at the very least negligent and would deserve to be
class-actioned by a US-based lawyer representing people who got phished.
Sometimes, makes you even wonder if they intentionally allow spammers
No intention necessary to demonstrate benefits from the misdeeds. And
frankly, many on this list also benefit from the misdeeds (I am looking
at you, anti-abuse industry).

which is why Graeme's advice is even more important to follow. A
decision-make will prefer their own smell than that of anyone else.
When I try to persuade a decision-maker that an entity is a wrongdoer, I
plead facts, not opinions. I am pretty sure that my opinion is similar
to the one that triggered the admin notice. That is not a good reason
to expose either. On the other hand, exposing the facts, such as where
the credentials are stored and what the consequences are, is something
that deserves more awareness.
