This sort of immoral behaviour should be illegal. It is little consolation we are already being abused like this by others. The public is not getting the protections they should be able to expect from their authorities. And default agreement is particularly obnoxious. Assuming that the article is true it shows how this idea that ones private actions are...

It basically says that Microsoft will do what Google already does.
However, while you can avoid Google altogether (if you don't want a Youtube account, don't use their browser, don't use Gmail, etc, etc) you can't avoid Microsoft (unless, of course, you use a completely different operating system, such as Linux or Android).
I suggest at least taking a look at the privacy options referred to within that article and then deciding for yourself how you want to configure your privacy settings.

Assuming that the article is true it shows how this idea that ones private actions are deemed public property and privacy unrecognised. Whatever is the world turning into.

As far as the article says it is Win 10 specific.
Re Google, yes I've noticed they have recently insisted folk look at a "privacy message" you can only agree to, not reject. Because of that I didn't bother to read in detail as there was nothing I could do about it anyway. Pointless. I guess covering themselves legally somehow. I don't know how companies get away with this sort of thing.
