It's time for Twit This Week in Tech. Harper Reads here. Ian Thompson is here. And man, we have some stuff to talk about. OpenAI apparently has hacked the Australian government, the U.S. government, and hundreds, if not thousands, of other websites. And they say they're going to pause, except they've got some brand new stuff coming on Tuesday. This is a weird week. We'll talk about it next on Twit. This episode is brought to you by Trusted Tech. Nobody sets out to waste 12% of their Microsoft budget, but it adds up over time through default E5 licenses, accounts left active long after employees leave, and add-ons nobody's touched in years. Trusted Tech has reviewed more than $800 million in Microsoft 365 licensing spend and returned over $100 million to client budgets.
Left unmanaged, licensing drift grows 3% to 7% a year, and Microsoft's newer contracts can lock you in for years. Trusted Tech's free Microsoft 365 licensing consultation gives you a real usage report, allocation, per seat optimized pricing, monthly savings, showing exactly where you're overspending before your next renewal locks it in.
