Windows 10: Missing articles

I really need someone to help me, I have tried and tried to find this information and an getting nowhere. I saw an article on Microsoft automatic connectivity using hardware id database collected using windows OS in late July or August. Now I cannot find it. Does anyone have a copy? On an Msdn forum I also saw that Microsoft had deleted three articles or posts on this topic. If anyone has one or all of these posts, please let me know or send them to me. Or help me hack the Msdn database for these articles. *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
Thanks so much.
