It seems to me that you could simply avoid a lot of the issue by dual booting, keep all your sensitive info on a small windows/Linux partition. If you say "that's too hard" then that's the choice they have to make. The thing I'm more interested in is whether the OS still takes 30GB of my hard drive.

I set my computer to say it is on a metered connection. It lowers the amount of spying data sent, as Windows 10 sending too much would make bad things happen. Too tired to think about it.

Anyone joining the circlejerk right now is going to struggle with linux.

I want to say it's like only 5GB but that's just off the dome and I could be wrong.

windows 7 was 27GB which really fucked me when I partitioned 50GB for windows lol.

Holy shit 30 GB? I just installed Debian yesterday and it's 8 GB after I loaded it up with both KDE and GNOME and their respective bundles of software.
