Quirk with "anyone can view" links
My organization posts "anyone can view" links to our website, and we've noticed that while these links work fine for "anonymous" users, users logged into O365 at the same that try to view the documen...
You sure direct links haven’t started to be used by mistake? What’s the URL being used look like? If you copy the link do a inprivaye browsing window it works?
Should've mentioned, we do test those links with incognito/inprivate browsing before posting. They always work as a true anonymous user, it's when an O365 user is authenticated that we have accessibility issues.

I've recently begun hearing about it, so I imagine it's no more than a couple months old...when did this change you refer to occur?
