    Microsoft's Intrusion into my Privacy



    We all try to protect ourselves from intrusions but neverthought the bad one will be Microsoft. Recently I get at the top of the windowI have Office 2013 a bar advertising MS products and I have been unable toget rid of it regardless various answers from the web. This is absolutely ridiculousfor MS to invade my privacy to sell their products. Any reliable way to get ridof this annoying bar.



    Please don’t tell me what’s on the web, I have try them all



    Thank you

    :)

    Microsoft Privacy Intrusion

    I'm appalled that Microsoft and Windows 10 finds it justified in scanning all my photos on my machine to display cute pictures during startup and idol time. Of the hundreds of photos on a NAS, someone has to have selected photos to display since they think
    those photos are cute. What gives Microsoft the right to invade my personal libraries??? What else are they scanning for?

    Also, Microsoft finds it acceptable to create popup windows for what it thinks is newsworthy of invading my privacy.

    Microsoft Sued Over WGA Privacy Issues

    Most people would think that Microsoft has had enough trouble with WGA in the past. It seems to not even phase pirating, and recently locked legitimate users out of Windows temporarily. However, a student at Beijing University in China wants to add "spies on legitimate users" to that list. He installed WGA on his XP SP2 computer, and according to some, he did this without knowing what exactly what WGA did. The student's lawsuit focuses on the idea that Microsoft's anti-piracy measure is a violation of privacy. Microsoft stands firm in their claim that WGA is non-invasive, and only checks on core parts of the operating system.
