I'm sick of the botnet meme /g/.
Explain to me specifically how Windows 10 actually violates my privacy.
>>54131895
Ask Microsoft.
>>54131895
The TOS can do that for you.

It gathers data for multiple purposes. Some of them might be beneficial to you, some of them might not. For instance, by knowing the kind of problems users encounter, they have an easier way to track them down. By knowing what their users do frequently, they can show ads based on that information. They're doing this for the betterment of their own platform but at the same time, so they can profit from it.
Windows 10 has been a weird system before they tried to shove it down people's throats; they changed elements from it based on feedback over and over, ending up with something that's not consistent at all. But they did listen to some of the feedback, which they wouldn't before. The issue is that at the moment they didn't fix things like having a better file manager or improve the font rendering engine they're using. Or scaling even.
If you're concerned about the NSA however, that's a separate issue and doesn't involve Microsoft or Windows alone. Keep in mind that by using a somewhat modern processor you already have no protection there.

It will make copies of every document in your document folder and store it on their cloud, which the government has a FISA warrant to copy and store on it's bottomless hard drive in UTAH.

Windows 7 was the last good OS.
8/8.1 was tolerable
10 is a nightmare. And that's the last OS

this applies to 7 and 8 too. as i said, 2000 and vista are the best versions of windows

That's not the purpose of threads like this.
The more the replies, the longer the first post image stays on the front of the board. It's free advertisement
People outside might not even open the thread but they will see WIN 10 again and again and again and again
It's just marketing
Despite it violating privacy, why did you upgrade to Windows 10? is what I want to know

There's nothing wrong with Windows 10 by Microsoft

The privacy policy is fine

I use windows 10 and it is no meme.

If you're too stupid to read the full terms of service, because windows 10 is now a service, then you deserve to use Windows 10.

It's stated in the EULA, you lazy prick
>>54132172
Ebin counter argument DDDD
>>54131895
It's just a meme. If you turn telemetry down to basic you have more privacy than the average Linux user with Steam installed.
>>54133790
How can you meme this hard?
It doesn't. The end.
>>54139485
It does
>>54139521
Keep telling yourself that, retard.

No you keep telling that to yourself
>>54139556
Public key cryptography is not breached by the NSA. It's not that easy
If they could they'd instantly catch their top hit list
>>54139556
How does that make windows 10 respect my privacy though
>>54139579
They can actually decrypt your shit using the back door, freetard, and they can remotely execute code.
>>54139588
It means that you have the same amount of "privacy," you fucking pedophile.
>>54139628
They will need two keys to decrypt. One unique to my processor. Good luck
>>54139628

Stop joking, insignificant miserable cuck. At least Linux doesn't store my driver encryption key in the cloud

What does the processor do with info? Links?
>>54132047
backslash comes before the space my friend.
>>54139787
He maybe referring to the theoratical backdoor in x86 processor processors, which is not yet being utilised by the NSA
Why is Microsoft doing this? Is it because of the US government?
I wish they never ended support for 7 or 8.1, so users who prefer privacy could continue using windows
Microsoft can collect whatever they want from me IF THEY FIX THEIR FUCKING DX12 AND SLI PROBLEM. If I see that goddamn dxgmms2.sys bluescreen again I will give away my computer for free.
>>54131895
LOL this thread again.
Boy MS is mad, the botnet isn't a meme. Enjoy your gaymen PC. I'll be using my Mac.
>>54139877
Yep they got a National Security Letter and have to install spyware on every computer now.
Also this is a thing, Intel's in on it too.

The spyware is baked into your motherboard now too.
Anyone have link for clean ISO's? some direct clean non torrented added whatever.

>>54131895
i dont get it, why is this posted everyday? I mean its great that some of you idiots are brining light to this, but how have you never seen a thread explaining it before? Is this literally your first time on /g/ since before windows 10 was announced? WTF?
>>54139980
I'm interested! Thx in advance
>>54132100
wonder if there is a "run as exe" program so you can have programs go unreported since they wont have .exe extensions...
>>54139406
in the sense that many linux users have many open ports on their routers and unsafe configurations.
>>54141336

Yeah, np: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

someone explain it and make a jpg of it because no one is explaining it ever. they just say "read the eula" which is bullshit. ive never seen it properly explained
If you track down the information that MS receives, could you scramble or encrypt just those pieces of information, so among all the stuff from other users, there's your info that's either unreadable or requires a password?
> tfw MS adds an exception in their privacy policy giving them the OK to trawl through your system for an decryption key to 'assist in the troubleshooting of user issues'
>>54142355
you must be retarded. There are tons of posts containing the info as well as pictures and even webm's showing it. You should prob just end yourself at this point.
>>54142161
But that program would have to be an executable
Is windows 10 better than 8.1 if i disable all their shit and run spybot anti beacon?
Why wouldn't it be?
>>54142796
>Is windows 10 better than 8.1 if i disable all their shit and run spybot anti beacon?
No.
>Why wouldn't it be?
Because the operating system itself is designed to always be connected. You literally have to manually block IP's on the network firewall because you cant even block the hardcoded IPs on the host.
tl;dr you cant 'get rid of' the botnet, when the entire OS itself is a botnet.
>>54142850
The thing that super fucks with me is the whole "You can turn this off, but it's ok, we'll turn it back on later!" thing.
Like holy shit, at least give us an option to disable that stuff. Have it turned on by default for the retards, sure, whatever. But give us an option to legitimately disable it for real.
>>54131895
it does stuff without asking you. its free so you are the product. you pay by providing data
>>54132219
>Being such an obvious redditor.
>>54142880
Did you honestly expect anything else?
>>54142880
>Have it turned on by default for the retards, sure, whatever.
Anyone who uses windows 10 willingly, is, in fact, a retard.
The interest is amazing...
>>54142919
I guess not. They have to build towards the lowest common denominator, and that's the people who want a big, green, "HIT THIS TO FIX EVERYTHING" button, and the closest way to get to that is to collect a fuckton of data on everything possible to find the best way to fix things.
Even if the majority of the data is sold on to third-party ad agencies.
>>54142916
>i dont use reddit cus im scared what the 4chan guys will say about me

yeah sure bro, if that was the case, they would provide a way for people to opt out.
