[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1250326, member: 19880"] Microsoft is getting on the personal information bandwagon in a big way. What else is their motivation to "give" you their latest and greatest operating system? Google/Android, Facebook and Apple are also in this in a big way and for the same reasons. How do you think Google (and the others) make so much money? Its not from the fees they charge for using their products. Not much you can do about it unless you want to just step away from your keyboard (and smartphone). In the past five years, on-line privacy has gone from something you could (almost) control to unbelievably intrusive. Just look at the privacy permissions you have to accept just to install a simple phone app. "Brave New World", indeed! You can either be terrified about it or just bury your head in the sand and carry on in the hopes that their interests are benign. [/QUOTE]
