What’s funny here is that in Microsoft’s Feedback Hub, the feedback related to “taskbar”, with the highest number of upvotes, is the one that asks the company to “Bring back the ability to move the taskbar to the top and sides if the screen on Windows 11”. We are not sure which data Microsoft used to get to such a conclusion…
The one they get from their spyware telemetry, probably.
A smart parasite keeps its host alive. It limits the substance it leeches, prioritizing long term survival over short term satisfaction.
A dumb parasite takes as much as it can. Even if it causes the host to die, and the parasite to die with it.
Of course - "smart" and "dumb" are used liberally here. The organism itself is not intelligent, and neither is the process who designed it. At least - that's how it works in nature.
