Interesting, Mikhail Parakhin, CEO of Advertising, where Windows is reporting these days is also moving under the new org.

I wonder what Microsoft's plans are for Windows now that the whole thing reports to Copilot and Ads.

oh, jeez.

Not the whole thing: a lot of the Windows org chart is still under Rajesh Jha in Experiences + Devices, or scattered around Azure with Scott Guthrie. But they've already been pushing Windows Copilot and Bing Ads and widgets, so I imagine the plan is more of the same.

Mikhail reported to Rajesh Jha and I guess now he'll report to Mustafa.

Mikhail's official title is CEO of Advertising and the entire Windows Engineering org reports to him.

I just asked some MS friends who confirmed.
