> As Microsoft puts it: “We are continuing the exploration of badging on the Start menu with several new treatments for users logging in with local user accounts to highlight the benefits of signing in with a Microsoft account (MSA).”
What is Microsoft really thinking here? You have to go out of your way (and probably do a web search) in order to figure out how to install Win 11 without using a Microsoft Account. So those people deliberately chose that -- they didn't avoid the MSA because they were unaware of the benefits, they did it because they were aware of the drawbacks and want to avoid them.
Harassing them seems more likely to make them angry than to make them change their minds.
