Win10 sounded fine until I heard it will share your wifi password with everyone online

That's like saying pistols sounded like a good idea until you heard they'll shoot you in the foot.

I have been suspicious from the start about all the 'sharing'. For starters, I will share what I want to and will gladly have to use at least a little effort to do so. I don't 'Facebook' or other social media, and frankly, hate texting. With that in mind, the work I do has a proprietary nature in that the information I do send to the few who pay for it is not to be 'shared' willy-nilly--to do so would be a breach of confidentiality agreements, written and implied.

If I want something to be scattered around the internet, I will put it there. Compulsive (or stealth) dissemination of what is on my computer is a deal-breaker.
