Not too long ago, Microsoft shared a new service agreement that will be enforced. from September 30 which means that from this date we will have no choice but to accept it if we want to continue using the services and products of the Redmond giant.

Nothing strange yet, companies change the terms of use of their products with some frequency, but in this case there is something that makes it different, and that is that an investigation by Mozilla suggests that Microsoft may be paving the way to start on use user data its services and products, including everything from Windows to Office, Teams, Skype and Xbox, train your AI models.

The key to all of this is the vagueness with which Microsoft is revealing many aspects of these new terms. Mozilla hired the services of nine experts to see if these new conditions make it clear that the Redmond giant can use user data to train its AI models, and unfortunately, they couldn’t quite confirm it.

If nine experts find Microsoft’s new user agreement terms difficult to understand and interpret imagine for the “regular” user. The whole situation has led Mozilla to launch a direct petition to the Redmond-based giant, where they demand to be clear and explain whether it will use the data of users of its 130 products and services to train its AI models.

At the moment, Microsoft has not specified anything in this regard, but we know that other companies have already started using data from their users to train their AI models, namely More and more companies will join this trend., so Mozilla certainly has cause for concern. Without further ado, just yesterday I shared with you a simple article where I explained How can you prevent Meta from using your data? and Facebook content.

Regarding the terms of use of products and services, this news also confirms that companies should be clearer and think more about the average user, as these terms are in most cases not only incomprehensible to the user media, but also they are so extensive that he tends to accept them directlye without spending a few minutes reviewing them.
