This shouldn’t be normalised

Outlook got updated on my iPhone last night and now they want me to agree to having my data shared with 807 partners.

Important note: I don’t use outlook as my primary email provider. I use Proton with a custom domain but I keep outlook for some old emails.

At least it doesn't say "Accept all" or "pay (monthly)".

That would actually be a preference. If it's a free product making money off of user data and advertising, having the choice to pay would be better for privacy concerns. If the app is worth it if course.

If they say they won't share any data if we pay, we can trust then...

The other alternative is "Accept All" or "Decline each one Individually by clicking three buttons to confirm your choice"

That would be great, as long as "pay monthly" was guaranteed surveillance-free.
