This should not surprise anyone. Microsoft should have lost any respect that anyone held for it around the time that 10 came out. The old adage about "if a product is free, you're the product" can't hold more true than it does in this situation. With the advent of Vulkan for gaming and more flavors of linux that have the ability to do office-related tasks, Microsoft better start listening to customers or they are going to be in a really bad space soon (think late 80s IBM)

Wishful thinking, but I know of several large entities that are already on the hook for W10. US gov't being one of them, pretty much all the top banks being the others. MS is one of the 5, they are going to stay relevant with the rest of them for a long time.

And we're surprised by this? The article talks about this as if it's an error of some kind... Next we'll be surprised to learn that it's an intentional move by M$... Then we'll be even MORE surprised to learn the fact that M$ is using this data to collect "telemetry" on its users browsing habits, even in an incognito mode.
Why is ANY of this surprising?

What's all this about surprise? Hardly anyone here is surprised at this, although we still like to learn about these things. This subverse is /v/technology not /v/technology_surprises.

The article treats it as a surprise or at least as not expected. Why do you find it surprising that someone would comment on the linked article's content?
