Free does not mean good. If someone offered to install a security system in your house for free, would you take it? What if it was from a "trusted brand"? Most people probably wouldn't if they have an ounce of intelligence. There is a saying which rings true regarding modern technology products, "If something is free, then you are the product."
Data mined from Windows 10 users will likely be sold to bidders and these days, it seems as though your identity isn't as secure as it was 10 years ago. While things were different during the "Wild West" days of the Internet the frequency of hacking, scamming, phishing, and baiting haven't really ever changed. I seriously doubt that the "additional protection" provided by Windows 10 will make any difference at all. If anything, Microsoft has essentially bundled legal trojans into their OS in order to comply with recent requests from powerful groups. Due to the wording of the Terms of Service, it seems Windows 10 will not only log keystrokes, e-mails, WiFi passwords, but also the contents of private folders (their words on the private folders thing). I am simply not interested in that.
