Good opening but.... : I install a piece of software MS or another company sell; after that I set the parameters and decide what informations go out and come in.
Would you use a version of Windows knowing that the OS has a backdoor, which you cannot control, allowing MS or whatever other entities they give access to it, to get into your computer?
I would not as well as any business would not too.
Besides all my private information is not stored on "D:\Data on the HD; there are better ways to secure sensitive information and I bet you know and use them as well. :-)
