      And they’ve got my credit card details, and an email address and purchase history more than 18 years old. So use that…

        The annoying thing is, the partner they use accept credit card as a method of verification. I suppose they cannot justify access your saved card details for this purpose. But technically the info is there, yes.

    Yoti, a trusted third-party identity verification provider

    Sure they could do it without relying on a third party, but Microsoft knows its users are going to have an easier time trusting “Yoti” rather than trusting Microsoft.

      Who uses the crappy social features anyway? Turn them off and leave me alone.

    You know that warm feeling you get when you realize that you aren’t part of a gated closed ecosystem and have control over your own hard- and software?
