Windows 10: How to control which account work or personal governs updates?

Katie_442 · Oct 31, 2023

I have two microsoft accounts - work and personal -- using the same email address. I bought my laptop after I retired, because I had to return the university one. I also bought my own subscription to Microsoft 365, including Outlook. To use my university email account which I get to use after retirement, I need to log on to Outlook with the work account; the last time I did this, I accidentally clicked the button that gave it access to apps beyond Outlook. Now the work account is the one that shows up on the Windows updates page. Recently, this caused a problem because there is an update my

New labels for government and state-affiliated media Twitter accounts

Our mission is to serve the public conversation and an important part of that work is providing people with context so they can make informed decisions about what they see and how they engage on Twitter.

Twitter provides an unmatched way to connect with, and directly speak to public officials and representatives. This direct line of communication with leaders and officials has helped to democratize political discourse and increase transparency and accountability. We also took steps to protect that discourse because we believe political reach should be earned not bought. In 2019, we banned all state-backed media advertising and political advertising from Twitter. Today we’re expanding the types of political accounts we label.

We will add new labels to the following categories of Twitter accounts:

Accounts of key government officials, including foreign ministers, institutional entities, ambassadors, official spokespeople, and key diplomatic leaders. At this time, our focus is on senior officials and entities who are the official voice of the state abroad

Accounts belonging to state-affiliated media entities, their editors-in-chief, and/or their senior staff

How do we define government accounts for these new labels?

Our focus is on senior officials and entities that are the voice of the nation state abroad, specifically the account categories listed above. Labels will only be applied to accounts from the countries represented in the five permanent members of the UN Security Council: China, France, Russian Federation, the United Kingdom, and the United States. For transparency and practicality, we are starting with a limited and clearly-defined group of countries before expanding to a wider range of countries in the future. We believe this is an important step so that when people see an account discussing geopolitical issues from another country, they have context on its national affiliation and are better informed about who they represent. At this time, we're not labeling the personal accounts of heads of state, as these accounts enjoy widespread name recognition, media attention, and public awareness. Institutional accounts associated with their offices that changeover depending on election results will be labeled, however.

In general, we're focused on those within the respective administrations underneath the head of state that offer its policy perspective abroad.

How do we define state-affiliated media accounts for these new labels?

State-affiliated media is defined as outlets where the state exercises control over editorial content through financial resources, direct or indirect political pressures, and/or control over production and distribution. Unlike independent media, state-affiliated media frequently use their news coverage as a means to advance a political agenda. We believe that people have the right to know when a media account is affiliated directly or indirectly with a state actor. State-financed media organizations with editorial independence, like the BBC in the UK or NPR in the US for example, will not be labeled. As part of the development of this process, we consulted with a number of expert groups, including members of the Digital and Human Rights Advisory group in Twitter’s Trust & Safety Council.

We will also no longer amplify state-affiliated media accounts or their Tweets through our recommendation systems including on the home timeline, notifications, and search. Government accounts listed in category one are not affected by this change.

To offer even more context to the public, clicking the labels on both categories of accounts directs people to an article explaining the policy and referring them to the Twitter Transparency Report for additional information.

Notification and appeals process

We’ll notify any account that’s labeled and if the account owner believes we’ve made a mistake, they can reach out to us directly.

Next steps

We plan to continue expanding this approach to additional countries over time and look forward to providing additional updates as those plans take shape.

Microsoft To Do can now share lists from personal to work accounts

Microsoft To Do gives you a personal and intuitive way to stay organized and make the most of every day. Today, most of our tasks involve collaboration with multiple people – something that list sharing can make easier. Whether you want to share a list of work items with your colleagues or a grocery list with a loved one, To Do makes it easy to collaborate and get things done together.

List sharing in To Do was originally restricted to sharing between personal accounts and sharing between work (or school) accounts within the same organization. However, many of you wanted to be able to share between personal and work accounts.

We listened to your feedback and are pleased to announce that you can now share lists from personal accounts to work accounts in Microsoft To Do.

To Do supports list sharing for the following scenarios:

Sharing between personal Microsoft accounts.

Sharing between accounts within the same place of work or education.

Sharing between personal accounts and work accounts. Work accounts can join lists owned by personal accounts provided enterprise admins have enabled this feature for their respective organizations. However, personal accounts cannot join lists owned by work accounts.

Whether it’s a grocery list that your spouse wants to share from a personal account with your work account or a work-related list that an external vendor team can share from their personal accounts with your work account, collaborating on To Do has never been easier.

Want to know more? You can read up on list sharing here.

We can’t wait to hear what you think about this new feature - let us know in the comments below or over on Twitter and Facebook. You can also write to us at L: [email protected].
