..or, people can just wise up to what is happening to them. For me, the key moment, was when Microsoft gave away Windows 10. I knew then, that I was the product, however I suspect that most people would not chew on why.


For most people that was great. It was microsoft finially listening to people who refused to pay so much for an OS.

I wonder how much it would take for people to wake up. Maybe if Microsoft came out in full support of Donald Trump maybe then people would start writing and caring about their privacy.


I thought the same thing. Concerning Windows config: a friends dad who's a network engineer turned me on to this resource for Windows service configuration when I was 10 and broke our family pc by removing required boot files. We reinstalled, and [1] was the first place he recommended I go. Still it use to this day.
