content: Please. #1 Your cell phone leaks much more data about you. #2 MS has given users some pretty nice privacy tools not offered elser. #3 Those who do not treat all their devices as if they have been compromised are fools. #4 Teh Cloud, aka someone else's computer... How much of our personal crap is on the friendface, on dropbox, various IM tools, and so on...  What invasion of privacy game? You optin to all this. Might be a good idea to read, or at least digest what someone else has read, the EULA. They state in clear terms what and why the are collecting various bits of data. Then do what you need to do for pretty much every device that has been online since 2000; lock down what you can, dont put anything you dont want to share with the world on it, and so on.  THis is NOT worse; MS gives you tools to change nearly all your privacy settings and the privacy statement is presented as something the user can read as they sign up to use Cortona. I've not run into any OS that gives me the controls I see in Windows 10. In linux (outside of some android devices)  I do not recall any built in features to choose what apps can use your camera, or access your personal data. Want to use a personal assistant? ATM those things process remotely. Telling an assistant, computer, or human, your deepest secrets is not them violating your privacy it is you giving up some privacy for functionality you desire. I wonder how many people QQing about windows 10 use full disk encryption, encrypt their phones, and so on. The ones I know IRL dont, and all have leaky cell phones or trust anything they install it seems...
