You are correct. I've witnessed this very behavior in a Windows VM on Linux, using Etherape. Lot's of interesting things going on with this shit, desu. I wouldn't want to be on metered internet and running Windows these days is all I'm going to say.

>>55786859

I wonder what day it was when the had the board meeting to decide Windows 10 would be "Freemium". I mean it's not like 99% of consumers of than gamers and "enthusiasts" ever buy a Windows license not included with their plastic HP bestbuy laptop anyway. And Enterprise users still pay full price anyway.

I mean their goal was to increase OS adoption rates so why not, you know, make the OS better? Not slap a crappy UI over Window 8 and then claim a Billion install will happen including Xbox one sales and underhanded forced upgrades.

Grandmas all over the world are waking up to having Windows 10 installed and assuming they got a virus. Poor people.

From a programming standpoint it's easily done if you have the system in place. For example, think of reverse image search. Or look at YouTube. Notice how when you upload a video it knows if it's copyrighted material, unless you heavily modify it which ruins the video, but makes it harder to analyze. They're getting better at that too though.

From a business standpoint it's suicide. Even with all the under the table money the government gives these companies, it's not worth it to this extent because they'll lose a majority of their customers. If not all, quite frankly. I'm not saying everyone is a criminal, but think about that time you downloaded a crack for a program or something that you later delete or whatever it may be.

It's also bad for them in general. Because while people care about privacy, they don't care enough to listen to freetards and install ganoo slash lihnux. However, if it comes to the point where they're analyzing your computer's content and actually arresting you... Then even the biggest Linux hater will move to it. This is the best marketing for Linux in years. Like how so many people went to Apple because of Windows Vista.

In short, easily done, but company suicide. I do mean company, by the way, not just Windows. No one will trust them.

I'm a freetard but using Windows 10 for the moment. If you want proofs, read their privacy policy. Most people don't read that shit

>>55786123
If you upload stuff to MS's servers (using OneDrive, for example) then you can easily get busted for illegal content.
MS has automated mechanisms that detect certain stuff.

If you just use W10 with privacy settings at the lowest, then MS will still collect data about your usage (telemetry) that can be used against you, but it probably won't be enough to make a case on its own, you'll most likely need to be a suspect in the first place.

While this article debunked the common FUD it fails to address the big privacy issues:

1) Windows 10 is a cloud centric operating system that restricts user control over the updates installed on their machine, and it it has a EULA that gives them the legal right to change the EULA as they please at anytime; which you automatically consent to. Because of this, the design of the operating system itself not only could be an inherent risk in the future but if left with default settings it collects a lot of anonymized data about your usage. While people will claim, "well it is anonymized data so it isn't an issue" the reality is usage data can never be truly anonymized. Furthermore with this design Microsoft can be compelled legally to provide this data; which when enough of it is gathered, and when modern analytics are applied against it; it will become trivial to unmask the owner of the data.

2) If you choose to use onedrive your files are also automatically scanned against known illegal files. While not a real issue now if you aren't a criminal, who is to say the laws will be the same in the future? Items legal now could become illegal in the future, and then you are fucked.

3) Bitlocker by default sends your decryption key to Microsoft's servers unless you disable this option. Microsoft can be legally compelled to give this up.

4) It has a baked in advertising platform with a tracking id that is enabled by default for UWP applications.

My friend attempted to download a torrent on a mac and was redirected to an apple security page urging him to log into his apple ID. He panicked and closed it all quickly.

But does this mean it may now be impossible to torrent things for the not so tech savy user on either Pc or Apple?

why did Windows Update install a fucking Candy Crush demo on my computer?

I figure it's going to make my desktop as trustworthy as Starbucks WiFi. I won't use Win10 for anything that I care about which means I am going to get serious about using*nix.

Probably overkill to disconnect my RAID until I learn how to isolate Win10 on the network (router can probably do that already).

>>55786123
even more, microsoft is probably legally obliged to report every pirated content (crime) they found. I mean, it is a crime - if you won't report it, you're part of it

They won't do that though, at least not soon. Maybe in next ten years or so, after millions of baby steps, but if they'd start reporting it right now , normies would instantly switch to mac and anyone who's not technologically retarded would either start looking for ways to restrict microsoft connection (i bet it wouldn't be difficult to make ip blacklist for routers if majority of world would get mad) or switching to ganoo solutions

It's pasta but:
Not him but the no games argument is not true anymore. Windows is the best os for gaming mostly due to most game developers are trained into developing for it with microsoft's closed APIs, so the simple process of porting a game that was developed for windows to any other platform will affect negatively the performance of the game. This with the fact that the marketshare is small compared to windows there's hardly an incentive at the moment to optimize for linux, making look as if the platform were worse for games than windows when in fact to flip the situation you'll need to change the idiosyncrasies on the industry itself.

The fact though is that the situation on linux is not nearly the same than two years ago and now those who prefer linux over windows now can play games on it, helping to break the vicious circle, but still there's a lot of things to do for linux to compete in the gaming side. I anyone wants for this to change i recommend to play the games you can on linux when possible and ask for linux ports.

I notice some people doesn't want's for this to happen but if that the case let me ask (not directed specifically to the person i'm replying): how are any of you benefited in a meaningful way with the current situation? because i consider that keeping the statu quo just to have a tool to win an argument on what OS is better is not a meaningful thing. how having less options and practically being locked to MS products benefits you?

Tried it in a VM. It seemed okay. I probably would've been impressed with it 4-5 years ago.

Ok well im interested in downgrading back to 7. I cant take this paranoia. I have too much stress in my life.

Is there somewhere i can get a free version of 7 and protect myself from botnet udpates?

>>55798973
daz loader

>>55798973
Just use the rearm trick. Google it. You'll have to reset it every 30 days but it's worth it, max is 120 days, but you can reset that counter too if you uninstall some updates. Win7 for free without dodgy Daz Loader which I'm convinced is just a botnet.

Also forgot to add google (well duckduckgo), updates for Win7 of which have telemetry inserted, there's even an update pretending to be a patch for a vulnerability but it's just telemetry.
Microsoft are sneaky shyster bastards, but Win7 is an absolutely brilliant if you get rid of all the shit.

I use VMs for browsing, torrent and other things for privacy, Win7 for media programs and games and other Windows programs.

Just don't do anything illegal, criminal scum.

The original point of the thread is whether or not Microsoft can use Windows 10 to find Joe Blow's copy of the Meteora album and sue him.

Your 'evidence' to the idea is a post about a guy who activated hundreds of copies of Windows 7/Windows 8 (no mention of 10, way to stay on topic you fucking idiot). and getting arrested for it.

God damn it you're dumb as shit, are you freetards that ADHD ridden you can't stay on topic?

Using a cloud service requires you to volunteer person information. Whose servers do you think run outlook and one drive genius.

Now here is one famous example where they MS spied on the personal email account of one of their own employees instead of going to the police.

Thats literally the reason to use windows isntead of linux

Yes, I do understand since I was one of those users. Game support back in 14.04 was piss-poor. 2 years later and it's getting better.
