any that doesn't begin with windows

well i want to game and only have one computer, so i have to balance my requirements. i also have to do lots of CAD modeling for work

You can stop the botnet on Windows, just dont listen to these autists that demand you switch to linux. Try ancile along with spybot anti beacon. If you have to use win 10 use ltsb, and windows 7 just needs those programs to be run and you should be free from Microsoft's prying eyes. If youre still paranoid look for an open source firewall software and block all microsoft entries.

>CAD modeling
Just use Windows faggot.

Literally nobody gives a shit what your mom is making you for dinner or what PC parts you buy off Amazon.

If you actually have any sensitive info that's worth protecting, use a separate laptop and isntall tails.

>for work
So use your work computer.
Also take up console gaming.
Also make sure to airgap all your electronics whose software you can't guarantee is open-source.

There your problem you only have one computer so privacy isn't gonna be all that great since you wanna game.
I only look at porn on my desktop maybe 2 times a day and for a short period I never save any I keep it relatively clean so there isn't much on it.
My laptop however was a cesspit for porn and the such. I went off topic but the point is its in your best interest to have a seperate device to do private things on.

People make up all kinds of crazy milestones for when Windows turned into spyware, but the fact is it has been since 1999. Look up

Uh, no. It's just a little program. It's not layers on layers.
>like it uses twice the computing power to offer less now?
How many fucking resources do you think it take to display a menu? If you're at the point of worrying on the level of megabytes you need to upgrade your system.

All the more reason you should stay on Windows 10, you'd probably end up with ransomware within a week on W7.
