Couple problems:

1. WINE sucks
2. Needing a VM for pretty much every relevant program negates the purpose of switching OSes in the first place
3. The holy wars that are Linux development basically means it will never be useful for anything besides server software, which the average end user never touches except through a Windows condom

99% of Windows users use it because

b) it is easy to use
c) it actually does all they need
it is not garbage, it is perfectly tailored to fulfill a special need, which is not the need the programs you are comparing with try to fulfill.

even windows 7 has telemetry shit now, you still need that sort of stuff.

I've noticed that Skype stops working when you block telemetry and do that immunizing thing

but recently, Skype worked properly again. so Microsoft must have worked around the immunizing for Windows 7.

Why would they need to create an event log every time a program is run?

In the quote explaining what it was, the customer they were referring to would have been the software developer. I would be surprised if they weren't sending these logs to microsoft. Otherwise, it would probably a call to some windows logging framework.

>>58572064
It makes it's own hosts file also, doesn't it? And if the user has already removed features what do you want the program to do? Say "your PC isn't protected"? It detects the windows versions already, so it doesn't even list the "handwriting data sharing" on W7, for example. Thus proving you wrong.
And, also, as you can see >>58561065 it doesn't CLAIM it has done anything. It says "all blocked". No matter what made it blocked, it is blocked and shouldn't be shown as anything else. ShutUp10 also works like this, in fact all software works like this. You're arguing about nonsense. It wouldn't say immunized if it failed to block the service, nor should it make false positives as you suggest it should.

Yet it lists it in Wine which sure as fuck has no handwriting data sharing. Or GPO. Or CEIP.

What if it failed to block the service for reasons OTHER than the service not existing or already being blocked?

It's impossible for software to predict it's being used in a way it shouldn't. Putting it in your own contained environment and yelling at it for not doing what it's "supposed to" doesn't mean it doesn't work. If it can't access something then it's safe to assume it doesn't exist.
