Here is where all your data/privacy from telemetry the last +10 years will be used. Microsoft said all telemetry incorporated in Windows 8 - 11 was only used for bug fixes and maintenance, LOL

If you've been having trouble streaming TV or playing Blu-Rays on Windows 11 lately, you aren't alone—and Microsoft is officially acknowledging the issue and promising a fix.

New is always better bro @Mr. Fox++++ Microsoft is very keen to get their hands on your data/privacy. And this is almost as be forced to use their cloud servers.  On top they want you to pay for it when you reach the storage limits. Then you have Microsoft checking all files going from your computers to their servers. Needed for training their AI model ? So double win for the Re**rds

 

Microsoft Makes It Harder to Set Up Windows 11 Without an Account

 

Microsoft is closing more loopholes that allowed users to set up Windows 11 with a local account. Users will now be required to connect their PCs to the internet and use a Microsoft account to complete the process.

 

Hmmm. Why didn't they know this years ago?

Microsoft has acknowledged that there are two Windows 11/10 features that do impact and slow down your PC.

I am finalizing my off line data setup here now and getting it fired up. Once that happens I will be removing all our stuff from OneDrive/OneNote. Next will be going to LINUX ASAP. Even the wife says it's time.  I have to keep my son on Windows where he has autism and change is very hard for him, but he does not have any real stuff on his pc only gaming. Keep him on a basic MS account with no extras, besides maybe game pass PC edition. 

 

For us however, we will be running linux for all our stuff.  I will use my iPad for work software for our inspection business.

They don't really want a userbase do they?

Where are all of the stupid people that said "telemetry is OK... I have nothing to hide" now? It's not about 'hiding' anything, but about protecting yourself and staying safe, not having your personal information stolen and activity monitored and used for finanical gain in the best case scenario. Ripe for abuse in the more nefarious scenarios.

RIP personal security. Everything you load (or being forced by the Government rules) up in the cloud won't stay safe. Authorities/Governments and hackers have an easier job now that everything is centralized up in the cloud. 

 

Discord recently joined a global trend of services and websites forcing users in certain territories to verify their ages by uploading photos or other proof of identification in compliance with new laws.

 

Hackers say they stole 2.1 million Discord ID photos in latest breach

Discord disputes claim, but is this proof age verification laws put user privacy at risk?

If I could get the drivers I need for the newer hardware I would still be using it. The slobs at Micro$lop have already taken steps to limit Windows 10 driver support. They claim things like WiFi 7 is "not compatible" but that is only true by decree. They can play god all they want to and forbid partners from releasing drivers for Windows 7 and 10, but they'll never have my respect or admiration because I am not a devil worshipper. I wish only bad things for them as a company. They'd win some points if they treated their native customers (US Citizens) with the same courtesy they extend to the EU. Even though they only do it because of EU regulations, they should have the decency to do the right thing when the law doesn't require them to. But, they're not a decent company, so I digress.

Rob presents a very level-headed technical explanation of why doing what the idiots at Micro$lop want us to do is a very bad idea that places consumers at risk and benefits no one but Micro$lop.
