Files shared with Anyone sometimes prompt users to request acccess to the file

Haven’t read the full threat here but wanted to share that we are seeing a similar behaviour in ODFB in W10 file explorer. We have not done a lot of research yet. But to me, it seems to be a bug that cause the incorrect link type to be generated after you select “anyone with the link” and click “copy link”. The first time you get the link after selecting anyone, it is a link requiring sign in, but if you go back to Share and click “manage access” you will find that an “anyone” link was in fact created and you can copy it from there. Pasting those two links next to each other, we found that they are clearly different. Maybe it has something to do with which link type is default on tenant level. We do not have “anyone” links as default, in fact we are limiting access to those links via a security group so the bug might be related to that.
Anyhow, for us this is quite clearly a bug, at least in the W10 file explorer UI, where the “anyone” selection is not respected when it generates the link and copies it automatically, but it does generate the correct link in the background which can be found under “manage access”.

Hope this makes sense and helps the troubleshooting.
