We are introducing a tenant configuration that admins can apply to limit user actions assigned to presenters in meetings. When enabled, presenters will no longer be able to control attendee mics and cameras, change the role of other participants, lower participants’ hands, and remove participants from the meeting. We want organizers to have control, flexibility, and structure in managing their meetings.
In the Feed tab of Outlook Mobile, we will remove the Sections view in the Feed tab, whose functionality and content can now be found in the vertical feed and elsewhere in the Outlook Mobile app.

In the SharePoint admin center, there is a Custom Script setting that controls whether users can run custom scripts in OneDrive and SharePoint sites. This setting will be removed in March 2024.
By removing this setting, Administrators will no longer be able to control the default behavior on self-service created sites or personal sites. However, customers will still be able to temporarily enable the ability to run custom script by using PowerShell, as described in the articles mentioned below.
