- bsilvereagle 11y agoUtilitarianism - OP may have decided that the small amount of damage he's garnered from an IP + MAC leak (both of which are somewhat easily obtainable) was worth informing thousands of people that Microsoft is acting this way.
- ultramancool 11y agoI'll take one for the team here, I think it's important that people know about this and a one-off disclosure of these details is no big deal for me. However, a repeated one, sent with a unique identifier, from any location I bring my machine is more concerning and I know there are people with even greater privacy concerns than myself who will want to know this.

- joaorj 11y agoEven worst, he is alive, and he had to share his name with the local authorities when he was born
- morganvachon 11y agoAnd? He could be running Tails with a spoofed MAC and bouncing through TOR while sitting in a coffee shop 100 miles from home. There's privacy-conscious, and then there's paranoid.
