Gavin Newsom has proposed expanding California’s sales tax rules to include many forms of digital software and SaaS products.
If approved by the legislature, the proposal would apply sales tax to cloud-based and digitally delivered software services that have traditionally avoided taxation as non-physical products.
It could impact platforms such as Microsoft 365, Salesforce, Adobe, Workday, and other subscription tools.
The measure is part of California’s revised 2026–27 budget and is projected to generate billions in long-term state and local revenue.
If enacted, the rules would take effect in January 2027 and could influence other states’ taxation of cloud software and digital services.
Microsoft is getting huge backlash from users for introducing a persistent floating Copilot button in Excel and other Microsoft 365 apps.
The button sits inside the worksheet, reducing usable workspace.
Microsoft added it to make Copilot easier to access, but many experienced users dislike it. They prefer a clean spreadsheet.
You can right-click the button and choose “Dock” to make it small on the side, but the full button returns when used. There is no way to hide it permanently.
To manage or remove the button:
>Open File > Options > Copilot.
>Select “Show Copilot icon only for highly relevant suggestions” to hide the floating button unless the AI detects a strong match.
>Uncheck “Enable Copilot” to disable the feature and remove the button.
Enterprise administrators can control this through organization-wide settings or by disabling connected experiences.
