Microsoft Windows 10 keylogger enabled by default

March 22, 2017 by Alan Stainer

Microsoft Windows 10 keylogger enabled by default

Okay, this is a big deal. While I know other big players use information about user behaviour to improve their products, they generally do so by informed consent on specific services and not as a blanket “we are going to track everything you do, on every site, on every app or program that you use.”

This is bad Microsoft. Really, really bad.

h/t Matt Hartley and Venn Stone

    Justin Goldsmith same here. My kids play games on Linux and Steam quite a lot. There are times when there is something they can’t play, but I’d rather they are on a secure system than resorting to using Windows.
