Microsoft pulls testing of ads in Windows 10 email client

Yesterday news broke out that Microsoft was putting ads in its default Mail client on your PC. Users have spotted it in the beta test and in an FAQ from Microsoft that’s now been taken down, it was said to be a pilot program. But now the company has taken this test back. Microsoft communications head Frank Shaw said the company has decided to turn these ads off. Shaw said these were never meant to be tested broadly, which might seem strange with the presence of the FAQ. But perhaps the company has listened to complaints about the plan and these ads shouldn’t be showing up now.
