Why on earth aren't you downloading this from a MS Teams page, if something is out of date? It certainly wasn't a popup from Teams itself that showed you this.

If I get an official looking message in email, I don't go about clicking on the links in it - I go directly to the website, log in, and see what's up.

What did he expect? That there wouldn't be ads? That's quite naive. If there is space, and money to be made, and they can do it, you can expect it to be done.

I will never get an appliance with internet connectivity. It's stupidly unnecessary and just a vulnerability. I don't want to be like that Vegas casino that got hacked through their thermometer.

I wouldn't get an Apple. It works until it doesn't. You can do everything right and still have your phone f*d up. I lost my entire backup, *after* backing it up per their directions and verifying it. Talked with Apple Support for over two hours and finally they said (basically) "Sucks to be you!" And since I did the backup to perform a factory reset on the phone, after I did that I lost *everything*.

I'm getting an Android next time I need a phone.

With the next election cycle being 6 YEARS away - that's way too late. Massive data centers with polluting generators, massive noise pollution that literally sickens you, massive increases in electricity and water prices. Way too late. Oh, just vote them out! Yeah right, *after* everything is built.
