Microsoft has access to all the data on your Win11 computer. And on your Win10 if you opted into the free extended service for Win10 (Win10 users who extended - you did pay attention to what they said during the process, didn’t you?

What is Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 and why does it expire in 2032 and not in 2025?

My Win10 machines are respectively old, or very slow. Enterprise would probably choke the new, slow one. I’m planning to convert it to one of the thinner Linuxes next year. The older Win10 could probably handle it.

But I really urge everyone else to continue to use Microsoft products. Their stock has done pretty well thus far, and I hope it keeps going up.
