Ah yes, the "you do you" of safety and security
(are they, though; for how long; and it's still going to be a massive shitshow when it's a legitimate feature on by default rather than dodgy)

 @sabik @deepthoughts10 @sarahjamielewis Also, youād just have to trust that the settings actually do what they say they do. I didnāt trust Microsoft for a bit when I turned off all their data-collecting settings, and monitoring all outgoing traffic confirmed my suspicions were correct. @sabik @deepthoughts10 @sarahjamielewis So, I wrote up a whole bunch of scripts and URL filters to proxy all outgoing connections. I like to think Iāve been reasonably successful, but thatās only because I donāt want to patch all the system files that do this in the first place in case it breaks something. |
@sabik For people who have bad memory: "Disabling" "telemetry" when spyware10 was introduced didn't disable shit. It merely reduced the frequency of data collections (which was still quite frequentl).
Then when people started sniffing network and noticing there was still data collection, M$ changed their options nomenclature in its menu. So M$ wouldn't be accused of lyingā¦ But still, they DID lie in the first place, by implying you can "disable telemetry"ā¦
