  @reset_by_peer I'm sure if you removed revenue from pre-existing products where companies crammed in AI without any demand for it and against the user base's general will, just so said companies could claim that revenue was from AI now (products like MS Office 365), actual revenue from explicitly AI products being used by consumers who explicitly want it, would be a rounding error on a rounding error.

  🎣 DFIR Suite API Spotlight: CheckPhish URL Scan You're triaging a suspected phishing email. The URL looks clean in VirusTotal. No hits in your threat intel feeds. But something feels off. This is where POST /phishing/checkphish earns its keep. It scans URLs in real-time using CheckPhish's detection engine — purpose-built to catch live phishing pages, tech support scams, and brand impersonation attempts that haven't made it into static blacklists yet. What you get back: disposition (clean/suspicious/phishing), the brand being targeted (Microsoft, PayPal, etc.), and a screenshot of the rendered page. That screenshot alone can confirm what logs can't — whether it's a convincing Office 365 login clone or a legitimate site. Practical scenario: User forwards you a "verify your account" email with a shortened link. You expand it, run it through /phishing/checkphish, and within seconds you have a verdict and visual proof. No need to spin up a sandboxed browser or wait for threat intel to catch up. Costs 2 credits per request. Available on all plans at hXXps://platform[.]dfir-lab[.]ch It's a fast, reliable check for the URLs that don't trigger your existing defenses — but probably should. #DFIR #ThreatIntel

  @AmazonHelp Please refund my money. Your Amazon team is not at all helping me regarding this issue. They are asking me to search the brand (office 365) in google and contact them. Amazon has sold a fake product. It’s your duty to refund me .

  @Diss0lution For many years now, the Office 365 installer is broken in French, instead of showing something like "90% complété" in the system notification icon, it says "90lformat error! complété" - incorrectly parsing the percent sign as a parameter. Trillon dollars company at work.

  BORDERS LAW FIRM (@BordersLawFirm) reported 14 minutes ago

  This is insane, frustrating, and, frankly, pathetic on Microsoft's part! I am a law firm, trying to buy a Microsoft Copilot Business license. Just one $30 license for the law firm. Nope. Blocked. It's not available to my account on Office 365 Markeplace, inside my Admin account [I am the global admin] and the block seems to be due to some technical issue between MOSA and MCA accounts. I have business premium subscriptions. They are making it DIFFICULT to BUY their already market-trailing AI. Maybe I should just spend all the law firm's money on ANTHROPIC. Mircosoft, get your **** together! @Office @Copilot

  @_stormed @xPraveen07 I used to agree, but at this point, IT is just factory farming. Nobody knows what they’re doing, so if they can just use remote office 365 and basic tools, that’s what IT departments hire. I had one guy quit because “they use Linux on a server”. Ok buddy, don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

  @EvanLuthra What is going on with these tech companies just taking away more of our rights and charging us more to do so?????? Microsoft "updated" my Office 365 Home addition with the "New" version. Not knowing this at the time, I open up Outlook as usual and thre was the "New" version. Less functionality and unusable to me. I located the switch to go back to Classic toggle button, slid it over, and Bam, a pop-up survey appears asking me why I dont like the new version. So now I can't do anything, twice as much. I scroll down and hit the skip button, but it is grayed out. Next to it is the submit button greyed out. Now totally pissed off I start typing expletives into the survey form. Guess what you have to complete the form to skip it. I and now not just pissed off, exponentially, but also feeling like the smartest person on the freaking planet. I don't know when it happened but tech, just basic stuff, has totally gone into the toilet. How is AI supposed to run on top of this garbage?

  @glenn_tunes Deal! Since US companies are banned in EU: GMail immediately deletes all accounts for EU citizens and countries. Ditto Office365. YouTube immediately deletes all EU content. Google blocks access to the Play Store for EU citizens. Apple blocks all access to iCloud and other Apple services to EU accounts and deletes all data. AWS immediately deletes all EU accounts and shut down all the EU regions. Ditto Azure. Cloudflare bans all EU IPs. Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, Micron, Texas Instruments, Cisco, Qualcomm, IBM, Dell, and other US hardware companies ban sales of systems and components to the EU. Every major AI provider blocks access to EU citizens and companies. Major SaaS companies, including major manufacturing software providers like Autodesk and Onshape, block access to their products from the EU. Basically the EU accomplishes it's goal to become a 3rd world country overnight without the hassle of importing the 3rd world first.

  @12Knocksinna @Office365 The annoying part IMO is that we had perfectly function PowerShell cmdlets that were efficient and solved problems in single lines that have now been replaced by tomes of graph documentation, the horrors of the mggraph wrapper, authorization scopes, and a million other points of annoyance. The majority of M365 admins are not developers and will not take up learning how to write their own tools in their free time to perform basic administrative tasks.

  "GitHub's scale is unprecedented." No, it really isn't. GitHub: 150M total users. Office 365: 345M total users. Xbox: 500M monthly active users. Bing: 100M+ daily active users. The company that runs Office, Xbox and Bing can run GitHub. If reliability is slipping, that's a priorities problem, not a scale problem.

  Microsoft Threat Intelligence (@MsftSecIntel) reported 26 minutes ago

  Microsoft Threat Intelligence has identified a cluster of compromised websites displaying ClickFix lures and using EtherHiding, a technique associated with the ClearFake campaign. An injected Base64-encoded JavaScript contacts a BNB Smart Chain RPC gateway to query a smart contract previously reported in connection with ClearFake to fetch next-stage instructions. Content stored in a smart contract is resistant to conventional takedown or sinkholing because only the owner of the cryptocurrency wallet that deployed it can make changes. Users are presented with a fake CAPTCHA that instructs them to open the Windows Run dialog, paste clipboard content, and press Enter to execute an attacker-supplied command under the guise of verification. We’re seeing multiple forms of command obfuscation and living-off-the-land abuse, including conhost, cmd, PowerShell, pcalua, mshta, rundll32, msiexec, curl, WMI, WebDAV, and scheduled tasks. Carets split keywords, environment variables hide interpreters, and Windows run headlessly or minimized. TerminalFix lures apply the same technique but direct users to Windows Terminal or PowerShell instead of the Run dialog. This campaign demonstrates that ClickFix and TerminalFix are a high-volume initial access technique. Microsoft reports campaigns targeting thousands of enterprise and consumer devices globally every day, while some malvertising chains can funnel visitors to scam pages. Numerous actors use the technique to deliver Lumma Stealer and other infostealers, RATs such as Xworm and AsyncRAT, loaders including MintsLoader, and remote management tools. A single successful execution can expose credentials, establish persistence, enable lateral movement, and create a path to human-operated ransomware and potential domain compromise. Microsoft recommends that organizations enable Microsoft Defender network, web, and cloud-delivered protection; restrict Run and command-line tools where not required; enable PowerShell script-block logging; and implement application control. Users should never paste commands from CAPTCHAs, browser errors, emails, ads, or unsolicited support pages into Run, Terminal, PowerShell, or Command prompt. Microsoft Defender XDR provides layered protection across the ClickFix attack chain. Defender SmartScreen and Defender for Office 365 help block malicious sites, links, attachments, and fake CAPTCHA lures, while Defender for Endpoint detects suspicious command execution and outbound connections through alerts like “Suspicious command in RunMRU registry”, “Possible ClickFix activity”, “Possible initial access from an emerging threat”. Microsoft Defender Antivirus blocks malicious command execution using detections such as Trojan:Win32/ClickFix.* and Trojan:Win32/TermFix.*. Treat these alerts as evidence of a potential initial access incident: isolate affected devices, investigate credential exposure and persistence, and hunt for related activity.

  @signulll I used to think MSFT was oversold, but I now think they have a major issue. Office 365 is not agent friendly, the OS is from a different era. Teams is a disgrace.

  @nonlinear_james @atalocke I’m using it to manage my work office 365 email right now without any issue. Not IMAP, either. It has native exchange capabilities. Also, WTF is wrong with IMAP? Evolution’s biggest advantage is it doesn’t tether me to a proprietary OS. No copilot BS on my computer!

  @KingDamilotun XLOOKUP (This only works on latest version of excel like Office 365 and has inbuilt error msg) INDEX-MATCH (works on older version of Excel, but more complex to write. The downside here is that you'd have to wrap it in an IFERROR function to return an error msg)

  Assume low data rate and high ping. Now assume you're trying to log in to an Office 365 implementation of some sort. All that said, while astronauts are professionals, they're not IT pros and probably couldn't tell you the difference between outlook and an exchange server.

  Unfortunately with this phone I've had to install the Microsoft Email App, @Office I absolutely hate its display and way of working with it. Now, because of their many updates, the SEND little icon/arrow is no longer showing when you want to send or forward an email from my phone. Apparently, you now have to SCHEDULE a time for sending an email and they don't even give you the option of sending it NOW. I mean, you are typing an email or want to forward it to others, why on earth would you want to schedule a time to send it? I've sent them a DM so hopefully they will come back to me soon with a solution to this problem. I just want to type and send, NOT wait until tomorrow to send it. Otherwise, I would type it tomorrow, NOT today. God give me strength and a lot of patience. Why NOT allow people who use Microsoft Office 365 like me to just have the email App they want on their phones? We are NOT a dictatorship just yet, so I, NOT Microsoft must choose what I want on my phone and it all must be compatible with Office 365 on either your laptop or desktop pcs. Grateful if they can help, as I need to work and am NOT home atm. Thanks

  The software industry seems to be in cahoots with one another. I suspect subscribed to Office365 through @GoDaddy so no matter how much trouble I have with @GoDaddy trying to access my email account, @Microsoft is completely unwilling and unable help.

  Security Weekly Podcast Network (@SecWeekly) reported 1 hour ago

  Passwords get stolen. MFA prompts get approved. Rob Allen explains why some organizations are now locking SaaS apps like Office 365, GitHub, and Salesforce to specific trusted IP paths instead of exposing login access to the entire internet. Even if an attacker has credentials, they still can’t connect unless traffic comes from the approved location. Is location-based access control becoming the next layer after MFA? #Cybersecurity #SaaS #IdentitySecurity

  @DeepValue47 On Azure. 👎🏻 If they force their Office dominance they’ll likely force @PalantirTech into the office document space. Office 365 web word support is terrible and everyone knows it. If Palantir integrates Team equivalent capability, the war will be on.
