EU's Big Tech gatekeepers, AI-powered shopping tools, Windows Copilot Preview
AI
- Microsoft adds new AI-powered shopping tools to Bing and Edge. I'm sure they won't just recommend Microsoft products.
- Google changes its privacy policy, admits it will scrape the Internet to train its models
Hardware

So much for "right tool for the job."
Xbox

- What would a "mobile-native" version of Game Pass look like? And how could Microsoft get past the mobile gatekeepers?
- Microsoft announces its July Xbox Games with Gold titles
Microsoft also announced its first Game Pass titles for July
