I don&amp;#x27;t see how Microsoft keeps OneDrive data separate.&lt;p&gt;Microsoft has not done a good job at keeping stuff separate. If you login to Outlook, Teams or any Office application with more than one account it becomes a giant mess. All of a sudden other programs like Edge will have one of your company policies like default home page applied.&lt;p&gt;Also authenticating with Microsoft accounts using Azure AD anywhere is a giant headache as Azure AD may have one login with multiple directories. So you&amp;#x27;re constantly having to re-authenticate &amp;amp; login with the proper AD account &amp;amp; proper &amp;quot;Directory selected&amp;quot;.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m sure some older gray beards will respond with &amp;quot;Never login to your personal devices with a work login&amp;quot;. That&amp;#x27;s great advice for plenty of situations but there are plenty where it doesn&amp;#x27;t work. Have a personal account &amp;amp; want to help your local church &amp;amp; non-profits out? Offer consulting services to multiple small businesses? While the Matrix setup looks awesome, it&amp;#x27;s not fun to login to 10 different devices or 10 different VMs.&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#x27;t see how Microsoft is going to properly do security to protect your data from going elsewhere even if you only have one account, let alone multiple.&lt;p&gt;I like CoPilot, I love ChatGPT &amp;amp; overall I like most of Microsoft&amp;#x27;s products. But they&amp;#x27;re going faster then they can handle &amp;amp; they&amp;#x27;re very well known for not having great communication &amp;amp; cooperation between their large divisions.</text></comment>

For whatever reason their entire internal platform is behoven to Sharepoint and that is a no-go for me.</text></comment>
