sman Posted January 16, 2016 ID:1012998 Share Posted January 16, 2016 No plan to install Windows 10 due to Microsoft's controversial data mining and privacy invasions within the operating system? Well, Windows 7 and Windows 8 OS users should also be worried as Windows 10 spying is now headed their way too… Microsoft has been caught installing latest updates onto Windows 7 and Windows 8 computers that effectively introduce the same data collecting and user behavior tracking features used in Windows 10.

daledoc1 Posted January 16, 2016 ID:1013000 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Hi: Yes, this is rather extremely OLD news. 100s (probably 1000s) of heated discussions about this all over the internet for more than year.All of the "general" computer and security websites/fora/communities have many, many, many heated "discussions" about this. Thanks for sharing... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sman Posted January 16, 2016 Author ID:1013007 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I thought, with WIn 10, the EULA was the most controversial and intentions by MS well open.. Till this time, had no idea that MS took it up with its older versions too..(as you can see, the article referred is very recent).. Anyway, tks.. for the feedback..
