Oh well as long as it's their legitimate interest, then by all means!

FYI, tracking based on legitimate interest can be rejected, it just isn't by default. If you click on "reject all" both tracking based on consent and tracking based on legitimate interests are rejected (at least if Microsoft wants to be in compliance with EU rules on tracking).

The only trackers that can be used even if you click on "reject all" are those that are used exclusively for technical purposes and some very light analytics

The overriding legitimate interest you speak of is so vaguely defined as to make a simple 'yeah fuck you, that's why' pass the filter
