Im Jahr 2025 floss fast eine halbe Milliarde an Steuergeldern in Microsoft-Lizenzen – und das allein auf Bundesebene. Die Zahlen haben sich in den letzten drei Jahren um 75 % Prozent erhöht. | Michael Kolain | Zentrum für Digitalrechte und Demokratie #Microsoft #Deutschland

Die Abhängigkeit von Microsoft hat einen Preis – und der steigt rasant.
Christoph Schmees zeigt: Bundesbehörden zahlten 2023 noch 274 Mio. €, 2025 schon 481 Mio. €. Mit angeschlossenen Stellen fast eine Milliarde jährlich. Transparenz? Fehlanzeige. Digitale Souveränität wäre offensichtlich günstiger.

#Microsoft really doesn't want you to stop using #GitHub Sponsors.
So apparently I can't stop people from sponsoring me myself. And I can't disable #GitHubSponsors either, because I have people sponsoring me. The only thing I can do is to contact support and ask them to handle it.
Fortunately, there's a ready support link with pre-filled form. Except it doesn't work anymore, so you have to go through the new support request form yourself. And after you write the message yourself, it is fed to a completely useless LLM that tells you how to disable account. Except that the process doesn't work, because as the bottom hint notes, if you have any active sponsors, you need to contact support instead 🤦. Well, at least it eventually lets you send that support request.
At least #KoFi lets you remove memberships yourself. It also lets you remove the account entirely but apparently not deactivate it. For that, there's apparently a support request. Sent one, let's see how it goes.
