Last Windows 11 update changed default browser to Edge, default Chrome search-engine to Bing and changed "restore previous tabs" setting to "always open Bing on startup"<p>So they basically messed around with third-party software settings to push their shitty products. This is pathetic, predatory and should be illegal.<p>How do you deal with Microsoft's crap on a daily basis? Any similar stories?

Ask HN: Gmail account security
I have a gmail account that I rarely use, but I know the password. I enter it correctly and get the following message:<p>You’re trying to sign in on a device Google doesn’t recognize, and we don’t have enough information to verify that it’s you. For your protection, you can’t sign in here right now.
Try again from a device or location where you’ve signed in before.<p>Even if I get the code from the recovery email account, it won't work. Is this the AI hell Google throws you into if you get a new phone and computer in the same year? Has anyone else on HN run into this and found a solution?
