    Microsoft Brings Their Spying Features From Windows 10 to 7 & 8


    this thread is not about windows 10 per say, it is about forcing the windows 10 tracking into the older OS's... That where not subject to Test releases..

    And the topic states 10 7 and 8 - so not really a bash thread on windows 10 by non 10 users...

    When any of us allow another Agent to determine what is considered private - then you have no privacy.. And clearly many do care about what is being collected and why.. If you do not care about your privacy then why not just leave your Doors wide open when you go on vacation - But you choose to lock them anyway..

    Privacy is a personal choice.. YOUR CHOICE.. And not for a Company to decide.. As far as suggestions as to have to fix the issue - NO, I DO NOT WANT TO JOIN IN DATA COLLECTION - click here..

    No Taxation, Without Representation.. We here is the USA fought wars over this concept..

    The " hiding" and trying to "fool" people is definitely true , just installing Win 10 will reveal that , they intentionally try to cover the "send Microsoft information " check box in one of the settings pages so there is no denying that . Only if you scroll to the very bottom of the page does it reveal itself .

    All the "skip this step" options are much smaller than they should be in the hope some miss it and if you don't look close it is easy to miss .


    Imo, most people complaining have taken advantage of the upgrade and are finding things of concern , i highly doubt they are Win 7 and 8 users who have not upgraded .

    It's important to note that the privacy issues are big news on ALL tech forums now and being first page news on countless websites so lets not try to make this as some people only on this forum.

    Google Microsoft and privacy and you will have pages full of headlines complaining about Win 10 . To brush it off as nothing and only the paranoid are complaining is totally bogus.
