What measures if any they are willing/capable to implement in light of that lack of trust will of course be different from person to person. So once that trust is lost, you will be hard pressed to convince people otherwise. The US lenience with regards to surveillance and their gagging laws, same for the Chinese etc. While these may not be 100% rational trade-offs, there are underpinnings in some if not all of these cases that can have some merit. Rationally you'd be more worried about infectious malicious packages or applications the user might have unknowingly installed and active than the base system/OS itself.Įmpathically people will tend to tar with a bigger brush, like banning all Windows machines of the network, or not allowing any Huawei devices etc. Rationally any device you allow unisolated on your network is a potential threat.

My ideal Windows 10 setup would be basically Windows 7 + a wizard of 'Do you want this feature / telemetry' that actually respects my answers.

Instead, on a default install of Windows 10 Pro, which I bought a license for, I get tons of preinstalled crapware / links to install said crapware, a barrage of attempts to convert my local user account to a Microsoft account, an antivirus tool that's so aggressive that some of my software development tools have had to include directions for whitelisting their cache directories, and just this persistent worry that Microsoft will push out the next update and break my PC or start collecting new data, or re-enabling things I've already disabled. If I want a local user account without the OS phoning home for anything other than Windows Update, I should be able to do that. Whats stopping them from using their broad powers under their EULA from collecting information about any device on my network that will respond to the Windows 10 machine's request? The amount of telemetry they force you to accept just to use Windows 10 is unacceptable. For me it's because I just don't trust Microsoft anymore.
