says it will prioritize security

Heard this so many times before.

Are they going to drop the constant data collection, or is that data collection also considered 'secure'?

Microsoft admitted that it could have taken steps to prevent two aggressive nation-state cyberattacks from China and Russia

Microsoft spent years ignoring a vulnerability while he proposed fixes to the "security nightmare." Instead, Microsoft feared it might lose its government contract by warning about the bug and allegedly downplayed the problem, choosing profits over security

Jesus fucking Christ Microsoft.

Edit: OP, the article currently links to page 2, which is a bit odd to read first. Here is page 1.

...will prioritize security over AI

They should have been doing that already??

And Congress, like idiots, will believe them. Because they're paid to.

Always weird to see "Microsoft in damage control mode, when like 98% of Microsoft employees see literally no difference from the day before.

No it won’t. No one does. No one ever does.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The company has invited the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency to attend a "detailed technical briefing" on SFI and Microsoft's other engineering objectives to explain "the specific ways we are implementing the CSRB’s recommendations," Smith said.

Although he acknowledged that Microsoft has "by far the first and greatest responsibility" to heed the CSRB's report, "no single company can protect a country and other nations from what is emerging as a cyberwar waged by four aggressive governments," Smith said.

Smith suggested that the committee members could "do more in support of cyber defense" by funding critical cybersecurity programs, strengthening countermeasures, and "imposing appropriate punishment" and heavy fines to deter malicious activity.

The spokesperson further explained that Microsoft historically has prioritized its "security response work by considering potential customer disruption, exploitability, and available mitigations.”

“We continue to listen to the security research community and evolve our approach to ensure we are meeting customer expectations and protecting them from emerging threats,” Microsoft's spokesperson said.

"We accept responsibility for the past and are applying what we’ve learned to help build a more secure future," Smith said, vowing that Microsoft would soon "establish stronger multi-layered defenses to counter the most sophisticated and well-resourced nation-state actors."

After a thorough review, our lame language model told us that if we don't have all your data, and if we don't use our AI to analyse it it, then it will be impossible for us to keep you safe from evil haxors , jeffrey epstine, putain, terrorists, china and drag queens.

For your own protection we're duty bound to enable it by default in the next version. #savingyourlife
