Microsoft does not sell personal data. Do you have any idea how fast they'd get sued if there was any evidence of that?
You know who sells your personal data? Data brokers. But they don't have recognizable names or market their services to consumers, so they're less satisfying to complain about.
Yawn. Yelling at people to just use Linux is ineffective and it comes across as really condescending. It also does nothing to address the issue if how disruptive it is to switch operating systems, especially for less technical users.

And yet you can still buy phones with headphone jacks. Because there is demand for them. The reason you didn't see many is because the demand is a lot less than what Lemmy users would have you believe.
I found 8 brands of DVD±R discs—none of them Sony—before I stopped counting. If you think one company stopping production is going to stop people from using physical media, or that demand hasn't been falling for years, YOU are the one who's badly out of touch.
Let me spell it out for you: as long as there is demand, someone will find a way to make money filling it. No company, no matter how evil it is, can remove a product category from the market just by leaving the market. Suggesting that a company choosing to stop making a commodity product is an attempt to prevent you from having access to said product is nonsense no matter what company and product you're talking about, because such a plan could never work.
Or... they're stopping production because there's very little demand. Nah, that can't be it.
I think it means something similar to YOLO.
Seems to me it's mostly complaining about Google.
Do you by any chance take a lot of photos on a phone that doesn't have the capacity to store them all locally?
