Windows 10 Is Watching (& Logging) Everything

Wow!

Imagine that, eventually, over 1 billion people will 'agree' to download and install and use Windows 10.

Then imagine that, another 1.5 billion will agree to install and use, Android and iOS and OSX, which will do the same exact spying as Windows 10 might do.

Thats over 2.5 billion people, and perhaps closer to 3 billion, who will 'agree' to be spied on, WILLINGLY. It's too late, and complaining about it won't stop people from using their desktops and laptops and tablets and smartphones. People are already hooked, and there is no going back.

Heck, even the most anti-MS complainers here and elsewhere, will also be using Windows, even as they deride and attack Windows and Microsoft. It's an exercise which comes and goes with each new release or upgrade of a product from Microsoft (or Google or Apple). Charges of spying and collecting and using personal data, are as old as the computer age. Yet, people keep coming back for more.

But, there are those that have their preferences and will attack what they perceive as their opposition, so, we end up with the Apple faithful attacking Microsoft every chance they get, and likewise, we have the Microsoft faithful attack anything from Apple, and the same is true with the Google faithful who will attack all things Apple or Microsoft. It's a highly stupid exercise of 'who can bash the best' that occurs every chance people get the opportunity. Windows 10 is a huge development, and thus, there will be millions of detractors who will make all kinds of charges against the OS, whether the charges are merited or not.

I take all of these articles and comments, with huge grains of salt, every time.
