This community usually discusses consumer rights, but nobody is discussing this initiative. Is it maybe cuz Lemmy's majority ain't American?

how so? I think it's absolutely perfect that what was once emblematic of corporate overreach into our lives would be welcomed as preferable to the current state of affairs. Clippy didn't want to sell your data to bounty hunters, he just wanted to help.

Clippy is Microsoft!! So you are using a Microsoft product to fight against Microsoft? Just use libre office or other tool set instead.

well the last thing I'd want to do is infringe Microsoft's IP ... what is the FOSS alternative to Clippy?
