This was something I was wondering about. It seems like any company that has proprietary data to protect or privacy laws to comply with (most) don't even have a choice. I personally don't use Windows a lot, but even knowing that information was being sent out by default would be a deal breaker for me. Can you give some examples of the stuff that does actually have switches?

That switch does work. It just sends a bunch of tracking info instead. On Enterprise, you can also disable telemetry which does appear to work.
