How to remove Copilot from showing up on web-based apps?
Hello, I predominantly use Outlook through the website via Chrome. I also use OneDrive, Excel, and Word through Chrome quite often.
I had a tech person walk me through removing Copilot from my computer's apps - the actual programs - but it's still showing up on my website uses. I do not support AI, AI is absolute trash, and I want Copilot completely eliminated from everything I use. I am tired of having to close the Copilot 'summary' that automatically pops up at the top of all my emails. Is there an easy way to completely eliminate this, or am I doomed?
Thank you!

I have already posted a reply to this and the post is showing 'no replies' - I will wait to see if either of these show up and open a new thread. I suggest you all do the same under the same banner.

This issue appears all over Microsoft and they are desperately trying to hide the universal condemnation. It may take legal action over data protection to resolve this meanwhile they are scraping everything they can. Even the dislike button has been removed from this issue. I have turned Copilot off wherever possible and reverted to ‘Classic’ 365 and Outlook (which is clunky) but cannot turn off on Chrome based Outlook. More publicity and voices needed to get an on/off switch which should be provided for paying customers not wishing to use AI.
