微軟把 Claude 改成英國 Copilot 預設,十二月九日生效Microsoft flips Claude to default for UK Copilot tenants from 9 December
- 事件
- 微軟文件顯示,十二月九日起,未自行設定的英國 Copilot 租戶將預設啟用 Claude,數據在美處理;歐盟與歐洲自貿區除外。According to Microsoft documentation, from 9 December Claude models from Anthropic will be enabled by default for UK Copilot tenants whose administrators have made no selection, with the related data processed by Anthropic in the United States; EU and EFTA tenants are excluded from the change.
- 背後
- 多數商業客戶早已預設啟用 Claude,英國因不在微軟歐盟數據邊界之內而被排除。邊界未擴及英國,微軟改以十一月文件通知,把選擇權交回客戶。Most commercial customers already had Claude on by default; the UK was excluded because it sits outside Microsoft's EU Data Boundary. With the boundary not extended, Microsoft moved by documentation in November, returning the choice to customers.
我們認為這是把預設值當成政策的典型案例:行政人員不動,就等於同意了新的資料處理者。對受監管行業,留白即是決定,紀錄比技術更重要。We see this as a textbook case of a default acting as policy: if an administrator does nothing, a new data processor has been accepted. For regulated sectors, silence is a decision, and the record matters more than the technology.
- 對日常工作的影響
- IT 與法務要在期限前檢視 Copilot 管理中心的模型設定,並更新處理者清單;人事與客戶數據團隊須一併確認跨境傳輸條款。IT and legal must review model settings in the Copilot admin centre before the deadline and update the processor register, with HR and customer-data teams confirming cross-border transfer terms.
- 如何改善
- 本週登入管理中心截圖現有設定,寫明「維持」或「關閉」及決策人,存入供應商檔案,不要留待十二月再補。This week, screenshot the current setting in the admin centre, record whether you keep or disable it and who decided, and file it with the vendor paperwork instead of leaving it to December.
