Microsoft locked down its official Copilot Discord server after users flooded it with variations of "Microslop," a critical term for the AI assistant. The term was banned on the server around March 1st, but the ban sparked wider backlash; users circumvented filters using variations like "microsl0p." The influx appears tied to broader user frustration with Copilot's intrusive Windows integration and difficulty removing it from systems.
