Microsoft's 'Stay Signed In' - A Big Lie?

A screenshot of a Twitter/X tweet from Ed Hansberry - MVP (@ehansalytics) with the text 'Name a bigger lie. I'll wait.' Below the tweet, there is a Microsoft 'Stay signed in?' prompt featuring the Microsoft logo, the message 'Do this to reduce the number of times you are asked to sign in,' a 'Don't show this again' checkbox, and two buttons: 'No' (grey) and 'Yes' (blue). The image has been edited with red arrows pointing to the prompt text and buttons, accompanied by the overlaid red text 'Neither of these things do what they say they do,' criticizing the prompt for being misleading. The tweet shows a timestamp of '1:03 PM · 4/29/25' and 1.9M views.

Origin notes

This image is a remix created by editing a Twitter/X screenshot. The original source material includes a tweet from Ed Hansberry - MVP (@ehansalytics) and a standard Microsoft 'Stay signed in?' UI prompt. The creator added red arrows and critical text ('Neither of these things do what they say they do') using image editing software (e.g., Photoshop or a mobile editor) to highlight perceived dishonesty in Microsoft's prompt. The platform of circulation is likely Twitter/X, as indicated by the tweet layout and engagement metrics.
