Sounds like a pile of crap that I didn’t ask for, don’t want, and will end up disabling via group policies or the registry… or, if it can’t be disabled, will finally push me to Linux.
I think you can also invest in companies that sell stickers, because there might be a run on stickers to cover all those cameras. Personally, I find one of the biggest drawbacks of those 'smart' assistants that do everything for you is that you never know 100% if the interests are the same. For example, suppose you have a 'smart' refrigerator that orders products for you when they run out. How do I know it's not ordering from a secretly paying company (Microsoft's client)? Is it checked where it's cheapest? And the quality? And the trade-off between them? This also changes quite a bit over the years. I'd rather have these choices in my own hands.
Been on Linux now for 7 years or so. I wouldn't go back to Windows. Linux has it's problems, especially rolling releases but when things work, it's miles ahead of Microsoft stuff. It's also built on modern tech and you don't need to disable the telemetry, which MS keeps adding more of. I think at this point some of it cannot be removed, so if you want privacy, just don't go online at all. Last time I used Windows 10, there was a long list of background crap that was running, consuming CPU cycles and memory that I never asked for, never use, never wanted. Some of it could be disabled, some of it came back, some of it was impossible to get rid of. I very much enjoy the fact that when I look at the processed in Linux, I can see only the things I use or need on a system level. Microsoft keeps Edge running in the background all the time, if you never used it and never will...
Unless it has a GPU and running a local model, seems like it's giving up a lot of personal data. At some point, I'd like to make the jump to linux, post's like yours stimulate the desire more-so sooner than later.
