I wanted to mention that there are those giving the argument "well, we get snooped on by Google on our phones - why is it different when Microsoft does it?". Number 1, I don't trust Microshaft as far as I can throw them. Number two, I would put it out there that those people that don't seem to have a problem with it are PART of the problem and why we are in the lack-of-privacy-hell we now find ourselves in. I almost have to put up with it on my phone. I have to draw the line somewhere and I DON'T want it on my desktop ;). Windows 10 is one gigantic, moving, flipping, spinning, sliding advertisement. For an OS, that's just ridiculous. To have so many ads as an integral part of the operating system is just disgusting. Windows 10 is NOT free...you're paying - oh, are you gonna pay. Just know what you're paying for ;)
