Dayglored, Shadow Ace gave me a heads up on this. . . this needs a ping to your Ping list ASAP. Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President Joe Belfiore admitted that users cannot disable the tracking installed on Windows 10, even if they turn off all the user options for such tracking. “core data collection simply cannot be stopped. . .” Translation: you will be watched. OOPS! I wonder if one can just turn off WIFI, disconnect Ethernet, Bluetooth, etc., do all that, will MS Windows 10 just refuse to operate??? LOL!

I blocked a bunch of stuff at the Netgear Router. I cannoty put it past Microsoft to use dynamic updating of its call home list.

MS has been actively working (and getting funding) from the NSA for probably 10 years.

Ruh-roh. Now they admit the spying, and too bad, you can't stop it - Yikes! ... PING!

You can find all the Windows Ping list threads with FR search: just search on keyword "windowspinglist".

Thanks to Swordmaker for the ping!!
