Edit: looking back down the list, it looks like LOTS of accounts have been compromised!

So well done on the security thing with the linked accounts. Because just about the same time as you've removed linked accounts, you allowed someone to bruteforce my account!

That's right, my 10 word password, combination of numbers and letters, lower and upper case, was brute forced. It would have been much longer, but the really secure password combination styles I use on other sites are over 16 letters long, and somehow such a security conscious company like Microsoft doesn't allow passwords that long!

And no, it wasn't anything to do with a virus, because all my devices have antivirus software on them, and I have my Gmail and Yahoo accounts linked to the same devices, all signed in with cookies - and they haven't been compromised.

Of course, I'm partly to blame for not having a completely random, impossible to guess, never appears on any word list password. But at the same time, my Gmail account hasn't been compromised in nearly ten years. Less than a year of using Outlook and it's basically open season.

So well done. I appreciate that you've removed the only useful feature you have, and I'll be spending the rest of the day forwarding all my important emails to another Gmail address and setting up an autoreply because your stated intention, security, was clearly horse pucky.

I can't wait for the day when your entire company crashes and burns because you can't get the basics right anymore.
