Exactly what spying and transmitting back to Microsoft is going on with Windows Ten? If eveyone is so pissed off at then exactly what info is being beamed back to the Microsoft mother ship?

For example — Are your internet searches and websites you visit being sent back? I doubt it. Windows crashes info being sent back? Maybe. How much time each day you use your computer? Maybe

It’s in the article.

JV16 Power Tools is working on various improvements to it’s current system which are intended to turn off ALL of Microsoft’s spying and reporting software.

However once the new version is released, free for current users, I am sure that Microsoft will come up with new ways to send out the data.

This says nothing about all the back doors you know who have mandated into all of the current OSes they can get their hands on. Due to various laws in effect “you know who” is capable of exerting pressure on the software authors to install access for them.

There is absolutely NO WAY to ensure that any OS is secure from snooping, even Open Source such as Linux is subject to modification by some of the people working on it being coerced into planting the tools, back doors, and access points.

For those interested in JC16 Power tools and what they are working on to remove all the spyware:
