    Exactly. It’s very useful in a managed environment. It’s performance overheads suck though.Way too much CPU usage.

    But it should not be part of Windows, only office 365 or as an optional 3rd party service.

    Same story with icloud on Apple and Google Drive on Android.

    No free version of a paid cloud service should be included in any OS. It should require a separate opt-in sign up. Have we not learnt anything from the Microsoft antitrust cases.

      Absolutely. The average consumer device shouldn’t have any kind of internet dependancies baked into the OS, IMO. It should always be installed/enabled separately. There’s still vast swathes of the US that don’t have reliable internet.
